New Delhi, May 7 -- The Bombay High Court on Thursday refused an urgent hearing of a public interest litigation (PIL) seeking a stay on key board meetings of the Sir Dorabji Tata Trust and the Sir Ratan Tata Trust (SRTT)-two main charitable entities under the umbrella of Tata Trusts - scheduled for 8 May.

A bench led by Chief Justice Chandrashekhar noted that the matter had already been mentioned earlier and urgent listing had been declined.

The court observed that once it had concluded there was no urgency, the plea could not be repeatedly mentioned for immediate hearing. However, the bench granted liberty to the petitioner to approach the vacation bench if he still wanted to pursue an urgent relief.

The PIL was filed by Suresh Tulsir...
