Case Summary: AO/351/2026 The High Court of Bombay issued a notice to the Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai in this appeal by property owner Ashok Mahadev Kule challenging the demolition of his 15-room structure at Malad (W), Mumbai. The court found the Corporation acted in "alarming alacrity and high-handed manner" by demolishing the premises within 13 days of issuing a statutory notice under Section 351 of the MMC Act, 1888, without following due process or its own 2025 circular requiring a 15-day notice period and personal hearing. The court directed the Corporation to file an affidavit explaining the demolition and warned that failure to provide satisfactory reasons would result in orders for reconstruction and restoration of the demolished premises. The case is adjourned to 18 June 2026. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
