POONAM vs M.C.D.

The Supreme Court addressed the validity of the layout plan sanctioned by the Municipal Corporation of Delhi, emphasizing that the initial Resolution dated 1st October 1958 erroneously stated the number of plots as 108 instead of 98. The Court held that the Society's subsequent actions, including the exchange of land and the submission of a revised layout plan, were valid, and the prohibition on building activities on certain plots was based on the erroneous reference to non-existent plots. The Court ultimately upheld the Municipal Corporation's Resolution No. 588 dated 25th August 1965, permitting building activities on the specified plots, affirming that the Society acted within its rights under the relevant municipal regulations.
