BALAJI SKHAHARI KENDREversusTHE STATE OF MAHARASHTRA THROUGH ITS SECRETARY AND ORS

Disposal: DISPOSED OFF

Holding

The court held that the sought amendment of the writ petitions was permissible and ordered the petitioners to file the amended copies within one week.

Summary

The petitioners Shivaji Ramrao Karale and Balaji Sakhaari Kendre, along with others, filed civil applications (Nos. 8903‑8906) seeking amendment of their writ petitions against the State of Maharashtra. The applications argued that amendment was necessary to correct or clarify their pleadings. The State, represented by its Advocate‑General, opposed the amendments. A two‑judge bench of Justice Nitin B. Suryawanshi and Justice Abasaheb D. Shinde allowed the applications in accordance with prayer clause ‘B’, directing that the amended copies be filed within one week and served on the opposite side. The court then disposed of the civil applications.
