M/S. Shantistar Builders vs Narayan Khimalal Totame And Others on 31 January, 1990

In Shantistar Builders v. Narayan Khimalal Toame [(1990) 1 SSC 520], another Bench of three judges had held that basic needs of man have traditionally been accepted to be three food, clothing and shelter. The right to life is guaranteed in any civilised society. That would take within it sweep the right to food, the right to clothing, the right to decent environment and a reasonable accommodation to live. The difference between the need of an animal, it is the bare protection of the body; for a human being, it has to be a suitable accommodation which would allow him to grow in every aspect - physical, mental and intellectual. The surplus urban-vacant land was directed to be used to provide shelter to the poor.
