Case Summary: Geetanjali Co-operative Housing Society Limited v. State of Maharashtra The Bombay High Court disposed of a writ petition challenging the Executive Engineer's rejection of a housing redevelopment proposal citing alleged deficiencies, including insufficient tenant consents (below 51% requirement) and inclusion of private plots violating DCPR regulations. The court found prima facie evidence of 51% consents requiring verification and held that petitioners deserved an opportunity to respond to deficiencies before final rejection. The court directed petitioners to file a detailed representation with MBRRB's Chief Officer within two weeks, which the Chief Officer must decide within eight weeks after hearing both petitioners and the competing developer, independently and on merits without being influenced by the Executive Engineer's findings. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
