ADARSH SABZI MANDI vs STATE OF HARYANA .

The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the Financial Commissioner regarding the distribution of surplus land under the Haryana Ceiling on Land Holding Act, 1972. It was determined that Khasra Nos. 178 and 189 in Ballabgarh are part of the permissible area of the landowner, Col. Harinder Singh Brar, and thus the claims of the heirs of Jawahar Singh for allotment of this land were rejected. The Court emphasized the necessity of considering all claimants before allotting land, reinforcing the principle of fair opportunity in land distribution matters.
