The Bombay High Court (HC) has allowed a petition challenging the delay in constituting key committees of the Thane Municipal Corporation (TMC), directing that the process of forming the panels be completed at the earliest and within eight weeks.

The order concerns the appointment of nominated corporators, members of the transport committee, the standing committee and other important committees of the civic body. Their formation had remained pending, prompting Advocate Sagar Kadam to approach the HC seeking intervention.
