"We want to only know on what grounds concession, if any, was given to the company. We want to know if land was given at a throwaway price," a division bench of Chief Justice Manjula Chellur and Justice G S Kulkarni asked the state government. Nirupam in his petition alleged that Maharashtra government favoured Patanjali and flouted all tender norms to allot the land to yoga guru Ramdev's company. The plea sought an inquiry into the land allotment and urged the court to restrain Patanjali Ayurveda from using the land, pending a final order from the court.
