Case Summary: SLP(C) No. 016577/2010 - Suresh Rai v. Union of India Outcome: The Supreme Court dismissed the special leave petition on 31/05/2010. The Court found the petitioner's prayer for stay misconceived and upheld the Madhya Pradesh High Court's refusal to restrain issuance of work orders for constructing 192 houses under the Integrated Housing and Slum Development Programme, noting that any stay would cause incalculable harm to weaker sections of society lacking shelter. Key Points: The Court expressed doubts about the petitioner's locus standi to invoke public interest litigation jurisdiction, finding his claim of being a "social worker" unconvincing, though declined final pronouncement on maintainability as the matter remained pending in the High Court. The Registry was directed to communicate the order to the Madhya Pradesh High Court's Registrar General. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
