Oral Judgment: 1. Heard. Issue notice to the respondents for final disposal. Learned AGP waives service of notice on behalf of respondents. 2. Rule. Rule made returnable forthwith. Heard finally by consent of parties. 3. Upon going through the impugned order, I find myself in agreement with the learned counsel for the petitioner when he submits that the order does not spell out any reason for which the licence in question has been suspended until further orders by the respondent-Collector. 4. It appears that the respondent-Collector has been swayed away only by the fact that some persons were found in illegal possession of bottles of country liquor in a district, district of Chandrapur, where policy of prohibition of liquor is being implemented and that these persons made a statement that they purchased the bottles of country liquor from the shop of the petitioner. It is not the case of the respondent that the petitioner had made any attempt or had indeed sold the country liquor bottle...

Adi Dara Patel and Others Vs. S. R. Jondhale and Others

Court: Mumbai

Decided on: Apr-22-2016

S.C. Dharmadhikari, J. PREFACE:- A) This writ petition is one more in the series of matters where jurisdiction of this court under Articles 226 and 227 of the Constitution of India is invoked not by rightful owners but builders and developers, to reclaim the vacant lands in excess of ceiling limits, which have already vested in the State. The surplus land holders and owners of these lands very well know that their fate is sealed for they are divested of their right, title and interest in these lands by due process of law. However, they are propped up by builders and developers with ulterior motives to file such petitions by relying on the repeal of the Urban Land (Ceiling and Regulation) Act, 1976 (Principal Act) in the State of Maharashtra with effect from 29th November, 2007. Though physical possession of these lands is with the State and not challenged by the owners and surplus vacant land holders at the relevant time, now they raise such challenge being financed by builders and dev...
