Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the Andhra Pradesh High Court's decision regarding the release of premises, affirming that the government has the authority to review its own orders based on subsequent events, as established in prior cases. The Court found that the petitioner, who was a tenant and not an allottee, had sufficient opportunity to contest the eviction but failed to vacate despite multiple notices. The petition was dismissed, allowing the petitioner until 31.12.1987 to make alternative arrangements, contingent upon filing an undertaking to vacate the premises.
