Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that under Section 208 of the Haryana Municipalities Act, 1976, a notice for unauthorized construction must be issued within six months from the date of such construction. In this case, the notice was issued beyond the limitation period, leading to the dismissal of the appellant's appeal. The Court affirmed the lower courts' decisions, emphasizing that the respondents, as successors in interest from the original landowner, had the right to challenge the notice issued against them.
