Bhagwan Dass & Anr vs Kamal Abrol & Ors

The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the Himachal Pradesh High Court regarding the allotment of LPG dealership, affirming that the selection process followed by Hindustan Petroleum Corporation was valid. The Court noted that the appellants did not meet the eligibility criteria as outlined in the notice inviting applications, specifically regarding residency and family income. The Court held that the appellants' claim for a mandatory injunction to allot the dealership was rightly dismissed, as the trial court found that the respondents fulfilled the necessary requirements under the applicable guidelines.
