STATE OF U.P. vs SATYA NARAIN KAPOOR (DEAD) BY LRS.

The Supreme Court addressed the dispute over the allotment of Nazul Shop Nos. 195 and 196 in Allahabad, emphasizing the need to resolve claims based on the Rules for the Grant of Leases of Subzimandi Shops in the Allahabad District, as per Government Order No. 2547/XI, dated 16th July 1940. The Court held that the rights of the original allottee's heirs must be determined in accordance with the relevant rules, and the withdrawal of Writ Petition No. 20430 by Smt. Rafiqunnisa rendered the matter infructuous. The Court ultimately directed that the shops be made available for fresh allotment through public auction, upholding the District Magistrate's directive for vacation of the shops.
