    Case Summary: CWP/22231/2025 Decision: The High Court of Punjab and Haryana allowed the petition and set aside the Deputy Commissioner's cancellation order dated 02.07.2025, reinstating the mobile tower installation permission granted on 07.01.2025. Key Reasoning: Justice Jagmohan Bansal found that the Deputy Commissioner lacked authority to cancel an already-granted permission based on resident objections citing health concerns. The court held that Section 16 of the Telecommunications Act, 2023 (which permits relocation/alteration of installed networks) was inapplicable since the tower had not yet been installed. The court found the "public interest" justification manifestly baseless, noting mobile towers operate similarly across the state without differentiated health treatment by locality. The proper procedure would require the property owner to request relocation through District Magistrate channels, not unilateral cancellation by the Deputy Commissioner. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
