Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the demand for additional payment by the defendants in relation to Plot No.940 was illegal and void as it was not based on any award under the Land Acquisition Act. The Court emphasized that the allotment letter's terms did not permit such a demand, thereby upholding the plaintiff-appellant's right to challenge the letter dated January 15, 1993. The Court granted the relief sought by the plaintiff-appellant, declaring the demand invalid and restraining the defendants from revoking the allotment.
