Eviction Proceedings Of Unauthorized Occupants Of 'Public Premises' Should Be Conducted Under Statutory Provisions : Supreme Court

Live Law  

The Supreme Court observed that the eviction proceedings of unauthorized occupants of 'public premises' ought to be carried out under the statutory provisions. The bench comprising Justices Dipankar Datta and Prashant Kumar Mishra was hearing an appeal filed by the Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai against the High Court's interference in the exercise of quasi-judicial powers of the Inquiry Officer who is authorized to conduct an inquiry into the eviction proceedings under the Mumbai Municipal Corporation Act, 1988. Setting aside the High Court's decision, the judgment authored by Justice Datta emphasized that the eviction proceedings of unauthorized occupants of public premises ought to be conducted under the statutory limits. The Court observed that lack of regulation in conducting the inquiry into the eviction proceedings would not validate the High Court's interference upon framing a point of determination for the inquiry officer who holds quasi-judicial powers under the Act.
