Ravikant Laxminarayan Zawar vs State of Maharashtra and
others 2012 (5) Mh.L.J. 623 , it is further observed in the middle of
para no.18(9) that "If there are financial constraints as stated, then, in
passing a resolution, copy of which is annexed to the affidavit and
expressing helplessness, the Corporation which is a Planning
Authority, has failed to provide the amenities to the residents within
the municipal limits in terms of its obligatory duties under the Bombay
Municipal Corporations Act, 1949. The Corporation will have to make
necessary arrangements of funds. There are several reservations
which can be implemented with participation from the public.
Presently, in days of liberalization and globalization, innovative
projects are underway in several Municipal Corporation areas.
Playgrounds and other amenities are developed by matching grants
from the State and other agencies. We do not see how the Municipal
Corporation pleads lack of funds while providing such amenities. In
deserving projects, there must be financial participation of the State
Government".
