KALYAN SINGH vs STATE OF U. P.

The Supreme Court upheld the validity of a nationalisation scheme under the Motor Vehicles Act, 1939, specifically Sections 68C, 68D, and 68F, ruling that the scheme initiated by the State Government was compliant with statutory requirements. The Court held that the appellant's permit was properly cancelled as the scheme extinguished all rights to ply under the permit, and the appellant could not challenge the cancellation as it was a consequence of the valid scheme. The decision reaffirmed the principle that a validly promulgated scheme extinguishes prior rights to operate under existing permits.
