Sara Harry D'Mello and Others Vs. State of Maharashtra and Others

Court: Mumbai

Decided on: May-10-2013

Cav Judgment: (Chief Justice) This group of writ petitions challenges the constitutional validity of sections 14 and 17 of the Maharashtra Slum Areas (Improvement, Clearance and Redevelopment) Act, 1971 (Slum Act, for brevity). 2. In Mumbai city, otherwise known as the commercial capital of India, more than half the population resides in slums. While ordinarily we look at proliferation of slums as merely in terms of encroachments and unauthorised constructions, the draft National Slum Policy formulated by the Government of India in the Department of Urban Development and Poverty Alleviation recognises that slums are an integral part of urban areas and contribute significantly to their economy both through their labour market contributions and informal production activities. The draft policy, therefore, endorses an upgrading and improvement approach in all slums. The policy further acknowledges that cities without slums should be the goal and objective of all urban planning for social a...

Sau. Banotai Wife of Usman Garwe Vs. the Divisional Commissioner [Reve ...

Court: Mumbai Nagpur

Decided on: May-10-2013

A.B. Chaudhari, J. 01. Rule. Rule heard forthwith. 02. This Writ Petition under Article 226 of the Constitution of India at the instance of a woman Member of Zilla Parishad, Washim, depicts the blatant violation of the constitutional provisions despite insertion of Seventy-Third Amendment to the Constitution conferring necessary status, namely constitutional status, on the Panchayat Raj Institutions in the extant political system, though more than two decades have passed. Eventually, this Court and rather this Bench had an occasion to deal with a similar situation and a decision was rendered by both of us with concurring judgments written separately in the case of Charan Sovinda Waghmare Vs. State of Mah. and others [2012 (4) Bom. C.R. 40]. We find no material difference in the facts of the present case, so also the violations of constitutional provisions as to Panchayati Raj on the part of the respondents. 03. It is the case of the petitioner that for beautification and development of...
