In Kangana’s case, Saraf made an argument that the illegal construction is not on the developer’s behalf, BMC objected to the statement. During the proceeding, Justice Prithviraj Chavan asked Saraf if the withdrawal was unconditional or not. Saraf said that it was unconditional and thus dropped his request.
