Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the applicability of the Madhya Pradesh Samaj Ke Kamjor Vargon Ke Krishi Bhumi Hadapane Sambandhi Kuchakron Se Paritran Tatha Mukti Adhiniyam, 1976, specifically Sections 2 and 5, in a case where the appellants contested the restoration of land to the respondent on grounds of court auction purchases. The Court found that the High Court's dismissal of the writ petition was justified as the appellants failed to prove that the application for restoration was filed within the extended limitation period. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the lower court's decision regarding the applicability of the Adhiniyam.
