Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court examined the legality of a suit filed by Smt. Kamta Devi against the Municipal Corporation of Delhi regarding an assessment order dated January 28, 1991, under the Delhi Municipal Corporation Act. The Court held that the suit was not maintainable as the cause of action arose from an assessment order concerning property in Delhi, while the suit was filed in Ghaziabad without any evidence of attachment or distress actions by the defendants. Consequently, the appeal was dismissed, affirming the lower court's decision.
