Judicial Review Under National Highways Act | Courts Cannot Question NHAI’s Alignment Policy If Statutory Procedures Followed: Karnataka HC
The Karnataka High Court ruled that courts cannot interfere with the National Highways Authority of India’s (NHAI) policy decisions on highway alignment if statutory procedures, including Section 3D notifications, are complied with. The judgment reinforces the limited scope of judicial review in administrative law, emphasizing that objections raised post-notification do not invalidate expert-driven policy choices.
