Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court ruled that employees of the Municipal Corporation cannot claim a right to transfer municipal quarters based on resolutions passed by the Corporation that are objected to by the Municipal Commissioner. The Court emphasized the binding nature of statutory provisions under the Delhi Municipal Corporation Act, 1957, particularly Section 200(d), which prohibits the sale of immovable property below market value. The Court held that the resolutions passed by the Corporation were not enforceable due to these statutory limitations, leading to the dismissal of the petitions.
