V.V.S. Rao, J.1. The common law jurisprudence of individual enjoyment of ownership and property has been replaced by community welfare and community wellbeing. Indeed, the common law theory of individual ownership has been unshackled by the environmental law that no one can pollute and no one can curtail the right of a co-citizen in the guise of enjoying one's property is well accepted in all world jurisdictions. These principles seem to be violated and flouted day in and day out by the ruler as well as the ruled in urban constructions. This is the signature theme of this judgment in this taken up writ petition which has been assigned to me by the successive Chief Justices notwithstanding the fact that cognizance was taken by me as 'taken up as writ petition'.2. It was Saturday on 4.3.2000 when I received a Telephone call from My Lord the Hon'ble the then Chief Justice M.S. Liberhan asking would I mind to take up house motion. After getting nod from me to go to High Court buildings to ...
