Supreme Court Dismisses Plea Against Shah Rukh Khan's Mannat Renovation Approval
The Supreme Court dismissed a petition challenging the Coastal Regulation Zone (CRZ) clearance for adding two floors to Shah Rukh Khan's Mumbai residence, Mannat. The court upheld the National Green Tribunal's earlier rejection of the plea filed by activist Santosh Daundkar, citing doubts about the petitioner's intent and noting substantial compliance with environmental laws. The bench emphasized homeowners' rights to renovate within legal limits and found no reason to interfere with the approved expansion.
