Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the Bombay High Court's dismissal of Writ Petition No. 904 of 2008, affirming the State Government's refusal to sanction modifications under Section 91 of the Maharashtra Regional and Town Planning Act, 1966. The Court established that the ownership and rights over the internal road were not acquired by the Pune Municipal Corporation, as evidenced by their own admissions. The outcome confirmed that the appellants, Swami Dilip Kumar Roy and Smt. Indira Devi, retained ownership of the disputed land.
