Holding
The Court held that the delay is condoned and the writ petitions are restored to their original position.
Summary
A series of writ petitions (Civil Applications No. 9095-9114 of 2025) were filed by various applicants against the State of Maharashtra. The petitions had been delayed, and the respondents raised office objections. The High Court, exercising its inherent powers, condoned the delay, ordered the removal of office objections within four weeks, and restored the writ petitions to their original position. Consequently, the civil applications were disposed of. No substantive merits of the petitions were addressed; the order dealt solely with procedural regularisation.
Issues considered
- Whether the delay in filing the writ petitions can be condoned under the inherent powers of the Court
- Whether the office objections raised by the respondents can be removed
Subjects
- procedural law
- condonation of delay
- writ petition
- restoration of writ
