Quick Summary: Maki Homi Chibber, also known as Maki Modi, is in a legal battle with the State of Maharashtra over a property disagreement. The court has overturned a previous decision, and the case is heading back for a new hearing.
Maki Homi Chibber, through her lawyer, is challenging the State of Maharashtra and several others, including a housing society and a construction company. The case revolves around a property in Thane, Maharashtra.
The conflict began when Maki's father acquired a large property in 1948. After he passed away, the property was transferred to Maki and her family. However, people living on the property claimed they had rights over a part of this land, leading to a complicated legal battle.
A lease was supposedly signed in 1981, giving building rights to a company. Buildings were constructed, and apartments were sold, but the legality of these actions was questioned. Maki argues that the lease was not valid.
"The Competent Authority granted a Certificate of Unilateral Deemed Conveyance...," which Maki claims was done without proper notice.
Judge N. J. Jamadar found that the process was not clear and fair. The court noted that Maki wasn't given a fair chance to present her side of the story, leading to a decision being made without her input.
The court has ordered a new hearing to ensure all parties are heard. The case will be re-evaluated on November 24, 2025. The judge emphasized that the new hearing should not be influenced by past decisions.
