    Case Summary: WP/1947/2026 - Maruti Dev Ishwarpur v. Charity Commissioners The Bombay High Court (Kolhapur Bench) allowed the writ petition filed by Maruti Dev Public Trust, quashing rejection orders of its trustee appointment change reports. The Court held that rejecting the change reports solely on procedural grounds during COVID-19 restrictions was unsustainable, as substantive rights cannot be defeated by technicalities. The petitioner was granted a four-week opportunity to rectify defects and resubmit documents, with the Charity Commissioner directed to reconsider the applications afresh within six months.
