Holding

The order dated 25.08.2026 is correct and not liable to interference.

Summary

The Lilavati Kirtilal Mehta Medical Trust filed a writ petition challenging an order dated 25.08.2026 passed by the State of Maharashtra. The petitioner sought interference with the order, alleging procedural deficiencies. The High Court examined the record and found that the order was correctly passed and did not warrant judicial interference. The Court directed the petitioner to comply with the procedural directions contained in paragraph 12 of the impugned order, without expressing any view on the merits. Consequently, the petition was dismissed and the matter was left to the competent authority for due process. The decision underscores the principle that courts will not disturb administrative orders absent clear error.

                      P. C.

                      1.      Heard Mr. Mehra, learned Counsel for the Petitioner and Ms.

                      Newton, learned APP for the Respondent – State.

                      2.      I have perused the record of the case and considered the

                      submissions made on behalf of Petitioner. The order dated 25.08.2026

                      does not call for any interference of this Court. It is a correct order

                      passed in accordance with what is stated therein. However, without

                      opining anything on merits, if the Petitioner follows the directions

                      contained in paragraph No.12 of the said order, it is needless to state

                      that the concerned competent authority shall follow the due process of

                      law in determining the steps taken by Petitioner. All contentions of

                      Petitioner are otherwise expressly kept open without anything been

opined by this Court on merits of the matter.

3.      The Petition is disposed of.
