Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed a writ petition challenging a Government Resolution from Maharashtra regarding the removal of encroachments on barren and common village land. The court emphasized the need for adherence to prior judgments, particularly the directions in Jagpal Singh's case, which mandate the removal of unauthorized constructions. The resolution was upheld, reinforcing the state's authority to manage land use for public purposes.
