Chandrakant Vishram Bavkar etc.5 vs Prakash Vitthal Lingayat etc.6 Advocate - Kadam Abhijeet Ashok — 3/2026

Summary The Sessions Judge rejected the revision application challenging an Executive Magistrate's order permitting the Surves community to celebrate the Shimgostav festival in Oni-Kondivale village. While acknowledging that the magistrate lacked authority to decide hereditary civil rights between the parties (which are pending before the Charity Commissioner), the court upheld the order as a lawful emergency measure to maintain public peace and prevent communal disturbance, noting the order had already been implemented with the religious symbol visiting the Surves' house.
