Bakhtawar Trust & Ors vs M.D. Narayan & Ors

The Supreme Court examined the constitutional validity of the Bangalore City Planning Area Zonal Regulations (Amendment & Validation) Act, 1996 (Karnataka Act No.2 of 1996). The Court held that the Act is valid and does not contravene the provisions of the Karnataka Town & Country Planning Act, 1965. The Court emphasized that the builders' construction permissions were granted in violation of the Outline Development Plan and Zonal Regulations, thus upholding the High Court's decision to restrain the builders from proceeding with the construction.
