The direction was passed by a Bench led by Chief Justice Dipankar Datta, who is presently sitting at the Aurangabad Bench of the High Court.
The Court was dealing with a petition in which where there was no separate paragraph containing grounds as required under the Bombay High Court Appellate Side Rules of 1960.
The Bench directed the registry to ensure that in future, it checks whether a petition clearly specifies the grounds for seeking the relief.
“The Registry shall ensure that, in future, no Writ Petition is registered unless specific grounds are set out therein upon which the writ petition is moved for grant of relief, as claimed by the petitioner. Any lapse in this regard will be viewed strictly,” the order stated.
