The petition challenged an October 13 order of TMC granting permission to the Shinde faction for erection of a pandal and stage in Thane, after preliminary permission was granted to the Uddhav faction on October 10.
“The order is ex-facie illegal and abuse of process of law, nullity, void, against the principles of equity and natural justice, a gross abuse of the powers and jurisdiction, a gross misuse of the process of law, arbitrary and unlawful because the application off the respondent nos. 3 and 4 is shown to have received backdated/ antedated and granted surreptitiously,” the plea said.
