IN THE SUPREME COURT OF INDIA CIVIL APPELLATE JURISDICTION

CIVIL APPEAL NO(S). OF 2023 (ARISING OUT OF S.L.P (CIVIL) NO(S). 19033 OF 2023)

JITENDRA P. MARU APPELLANT(S)

VERSUS

ADMINISTRATOR SECRETARIAT & ORS. RESPONDENT(S)

O R D E R

Leave granted.

Heard the learned counsel appearing for the first and second respondents. Other respondents are unrepresented, though service is effected on them.

We have perused the prayer made in Public Interest Litigation No.92 of 2019. The prayer in the PIL was for quashing of the approval granted on 17th September, 2019.

From the impugned order, we find that the High Court has declined to entertain the PIL on the ground that clearance/approval has been granted on 17th September, 2019. The High Court did not notice that the challenge was itself to the approval granted on 17th September, 2019. As the said challenge has not been gone into on merits, we set aside the impugned order dated 18th April, 2023 and restore Public Interest Litigation No.92 of 2019, to the file of the High Court.

The Civil Appeal is disposed of accordingly.
