The Bombay High Court today directed the Maharashtra government to resolve all issues obstructing allotment and transfer of land for a state-run law university within four weeks.
A bench of Justices S C Dharmadhikari and P D Naik also directed the government to file an affidavit listing the steps taken to resolve the issue and specify the land which will be allotted.
The bench was hearing a Public Interest Litigation on the 'delay' in allotment of land for the university.
The PIL claimed that while the government announced in 2014 that it would allot a 50-acre plot for the varsity, it was yet to do so.
The state government told the HC today that two plots in north Mumbai, one in Gorai and another in Goregaon, were under consideration.
However, while a part of the Gorai plot was given to the Airports Authority of India, the one in Goregaon faces constructions height restrictions, it said.
It was in contact with the AAI to find a solution, the government said.
