Supreme Court overturns demolition order near Santiniketan

The Supreme Court has canceled a decision made by the Calcutta High Court.

The High Court had ordered the demolition of some buildings near Visva-Bharati University in Santiniketan.

These buildings were built by a company called M/s Aarsuday Projects & Infrastructure.

The High Court said the land was special 'khoai' land that should be preserved.

But the Supreme Court said the High Court didn't have enough proof or legal basis to order the demolition.

The Supreme Court also fined the people who filed the complaint because they didn't tell the truth about owning nearby properties.

The Supreme Court's decision means the buildings can stay, and the developer doesn't have to pay a big fine.
