THE ADMN. MUNICIPAL COMMITTEE vs RAMJI LAL BAGLA .

The Supreme Court upheld the Punjab and Haryana High Court's decision that the scheme under the Punjab Town Improvement Act, 1922, was liable to be quashed due to non-execution within the five-year period mandated by Section 44-A. The Court emphasized that the extension of the scheme's execution period requires government approval, which was not obtained. Consequently, the Court affirmed the High Court's order restraining the appellants from dispossessing the respondents from their land and houses.
