PREM KUMAR vs STATE OF U.P. .

The Supreme Court held that the Allahabad High Court's order quashing the impugned orders under the U.P. Imposition of Ceiling on Land Holdings Act, 1960 was erroneous as it failed to consider the appellants' non-impleadment in the writ petition. The Court emphasized that the order dated 21.3.1986, which declared certain lands as surplus, was final and did not pertain to the appellants. Consequently, the Supreme Court allowed the appeal, setting aside the High Court's decision and reinstating the orders of the Prescribed Authority and Additional Commissioner.
