Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the appeals concerning the protection of two plots of land designated as open spaces in Mumbai, originally approved in 1967. The court examined the validity of the High Court's decision regarding the Public Interest Litigations filed to safeguard these plots from encroachment and misuse. Ultimately, the Supreme Court upheld the High Court's ruling, reinforcing the importance of maintaining designated open spaces in urban planning.
