The Bombay high court on Tuesday imposed a fine of Rs 1 lakh on Anil Ambani's Reliance Energy Limited for constructing a power substation in suburban Chembur without permission from the civic authorities.
Division bench of Justices J N Patel and Amjed Sayed also dismissed REL's petition challenging demolition notice issued by Municial Corporation of Greater Mumbai.
The amount of cost will be used for welfare of corporation workers, the court instructed.
REL had moved the Bombay high court challenging a MCGM notice directing them to relocate a substation constructed by them at G M Road in Chembur in August last year.
The construction is needed to be demolished for road widening between Ghatkopar
and Mulund.
