M/S SETHI AUTO SERVICE STATION vs DELHI DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY

The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the Delhi High Court, affirming that the Delhi Development Authority (DDA) acted within its jurisdiction in rejecting the request for re-sitement of the petrol pumps owned by the appellants, M/s Sethi Auto Service Station and M/s Anand Service Station. The Court noted that the DDA's decision was based on a thorough evaluation of the situation, including the lack of alternative sites for allotment and the economic viability of the petrol pumps post-construction of the flyover. The Court emphasized that the appellants did not have an absolute right to relocation under the applicable regulations, thus dismissing the appeals.
