    Hon'ble Shri Justice M. W. ChandwaniView PDF

    The High Court of Bombay, Nagpur Bench partly allowed the writ petition challenging the dismissal of a suo moto inquiry into alleged trust misappropriation. While upholding the dismissal order as justified by procedural non-compliance (Sections 38-39 of Maharashtra Public Trusts Act, 1950) and insufficient evidence, the court directed the Assistant/Deputy Charity Commissioner to conduct a fresh proper inquiry into the inspector's report alleging breach of trust and misappropriation of funds.
