Holding

The Court condoned the delay, allowed correction of the prayer clauses, restored the writ petitions to their original position, directed removal of office objections within four weeks, and disposed of the civil applications.

Summary

Several groups of applicants filed writ petitions (Civil Applications No. 9095-9114 of 2025) against the State of Maharashtra alleging various grievances. The petitions were challenged on procedural grounds, including alleged delay in filing, errors in the prayer clause, and pending office objections. The Court, after hearing counsel, exercised its discretion to condone the delay, allowing the petitions to be restored to their original position. It also granted leave to correct the prayer clauses in the petitions. The Court directed that all office objections be removed within four weeks. Finally, the Court ordered the disposal of all the civil applications.
