AURANGABAD: The Bombay high court in Aurangabad on Friday imposed a Rs1 lakh cost on a petitioner while rejecting a PIL that sought the court's direction to stop MNS chief Raj Thackeray's public rally on May 1 here.
"The matter was mentioned at 5.30pm on Friday before the bench of Justice R D Dhanuka and Justice S G Mehare.
