  • Respondent: Municipal Corporation of Delhi (IA No. 279247/2026 – exemption from filing certified copy; IA No. 279248/2026 – exemption from filing official translation).

  • The Court directed that the status quo existing as of the hearing date be maintained by the parties.
  • A notice is to be returned by 10 December 2026.
