Last week Justice Deo stayed the operation of a Maharashtra Government Resolution of January 3 through which the state was empowered to cancel punitive proceedings initiated by the revenue department related to the illegal excavation of minor minerals by contractors engaged in the construction of the Nagpur-Mumbai Samruddhi Expressway. Deo was appointed as a judge of the Bombay High Court in June 2017 and was due to retire in December 2025.
