MFA has no vested right over Neville D’Souza ground: Mhada to HC
Source: Hindustan Times — Mumbai · 24 days ago
Summary
The Maharashtra Housing and Area Development Authority (Mhada) told the High Court that the Mumbai Football Association (MFA) only had a temporary, conditional permit to use the Neville D’Souza ground, which expired in September 2024. Because the permission has lapsed, Mhada said the MFA’s challenge to the proposed re‑allocation of the 8,450‑square‑metre plot is premature and cannot be upheld.
