Summary

The petition was filed by the legal representatives of the late Jaysing Shankar Powar challenging a decision of the State of Maharashtra. The petitioner argued that the matter should be decided on principles laid down by the Supreme Court in Indore Development Authority v. Manohar Lal. The Court examined whether the relief sought fell within the scope of that precedent. Relying on the Supreme Court’s ratio, the Bench held that the issues raised were already settled by the higher court. Consequently, the writ petition was dismissed without any order for costs.
