Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the land acquisition proceedings in the case of Delhi Administration v. Gurdip Singh Uban, setting aside the Delhi High Court's judgment. The Court emphasized that a review petition is only maintainable if the original judgment is manifestly distorted, citing Northern Indict Caterers (I) Ltd. v. Li. Governor of Delhi. The Court dismissed the review petitions filed by Gurdip Singh Uban and clarified that the matter did not warrant referral to a larger bench despite claims of conflicting judgments, thus affirming the earlier decision.
