Section 149 MRTP Act | Civil Courts Can Examine Nullity of Planning Authority Notices Despite Finality Clause: Bombay HC
Bombay High Court holds that civil courts retain jurisdiction to scrutinize notices under Section 149 of the MRTP Act if they are prima facie nullities, even where the provision bars further appeals. Plaintiffs must prove jurisdictional errors or arbitrariness-not mere illegality-to challenge such notices. This ruling clarifies the scope of judicial review over planning authority orders.
