In a significant ruling, the High Court (HC) has declared that it is
impermissible to obstruct public passage under the guise of a gated
community. The court has emphasized that the creation of gated communities
does not grant them the authority to restrict public access or infringe
upon the rights of individuals. This verdict holds significance as it aims
to ensure the protection of public rights and access to common areas. The
HC’s decision is expected to have implications for various real estate
developers and gated communities that have been accused of blocking public
passage in the past.
