The petitioners are the plaintiffs in a suit which has been filed by them for specific performance of a contract and cancellation of safe deed which has illegally been executed in favour of the respondents.

Anil Dev Singh, C.J.1. This public interest litigation is concerned with maintenance and restoration of green belts in certain housing colonies of Jaipur. We have heard learned counsel for the respondents. It cannot be disputed that the parks and green belts in the cities are the green lungs and they need to be maintained. The health and welfare of the people must be kept in view by the State and civic authorities. In Samatha v. State of Andhra Pradesh and Ors. (1), it has been held by the Supreme Court that right to life, enshrined in Article 21 of the Constitution means something more than mere animal existence.2.

In order to maintain physical and mental health of the citizens, protection, preservation and maintenance of environment and ecology is necessary. Parks and green belts cre...
