Decided
Disposal
Disposed Off

Holding

The writ petition is allowed.

Summary

Petitioner Uday Jagannath Ghodke filed a criminal writ petition before the Bombay High Court challenging actions of the State of Maharashtra and another respondent. The petition was argued by Mr. Pradeep J. Thorat and co‑counsel for the petitioner, while the State was represented by Mr. Sukanta A. Karmakar and Respondent No.2 by Mr. Piyush Toshnival. The Court heard the submissions of both sides on September 18, 2026. Due to a shortage of time, the Court did not dictate detailed reasons for its decision at the hearing. The writ petition was ultimately allowed, with a reasoned order to be issued later.
