Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the issue of the lapse of land reservation under the Maharashtra Regional and Town Planning Act, 1966. The court upheld the High Court's decision that the reservation had lapsed due to the lack of a declaration under Section 126. However, it granted the Planning Authority one year to acquire the land, referencing a precedent case regarding similar circumstances.
