💨 Abstract

The Bombay High Court has restored 120 hectares of land in Mumbai's Kanjurmarg area as a "protected forest", overturning a 2009 notification that had changed it for a garbage dumping ground. The court ruled that the due process under the Forest Conservation Act was not followed for de-notifying the forest, and gave the Mumbai civic body three months to comply with the order.
