UNION OF INDIA vs DEEPAK BHARDWAJ .

The Supreme Court addressed the legality of the permission granted by the Municipal Corporation of Hyderabad to the appellant for erecting advertisements and direction boards, which was challenged under the Hyderabad Municipal Corporation Act and Article 14 of the Constitution. The Court held that the Division Bench of the High Court erred in terminating the contract without sufficient grounds, emphasizing that the appellant's assignment did not constitute exploitation of property and that the writ petitioner failed to establish any illegality.
