Case Summary: Bombay Environmental Action Group v. Municipal Corporation of Pune (1996) The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal but clarified that the High Court's 1992 interim injunction restraining construction on plot No.57 in Pune remains in force. While the Court acknowledged the appellants' concerns about environmental degradation and potential circumvention of court orders through civil suit proceedings, it deferred to the High Court's decision not to pursue contempt proceedings. The Court held that any construction must comply with the injunction's terms and Development Control Rules, and allowed appellants to challenge the civil court decrees through appropriate legal remedies while the writ petitions remain pending.
