Orders
Case Summary: IA 2189/2026 The Bombay High Court disposed of the writ petition filed by Geetanjali Co-operative Housing Society and others challenging the Executive Engineer's rejection of their redevelopment proposal. The Executive Engineer had refused to process the proposal citing deficiencies, including insufficient valid consents (below 51% threshold) and inclusion of private plots violating DCPR Regulation 33(24). The court found prima facie that petitioners possessed 51% consents requiring verification and held that petitioners deserved a fair opportunity to explain and rectify deficiencies. The court directed petitioners to file a detailed representation to the Chief Officer (MBRRB) within two weeks, requiring the Chief Officer to conduct independent hearings with both petitioners and competing developer Darshan Jayant Builders within eight weeks, deciding the matter on merits without being bound by the Executive Engineer's findings. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
