Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the Delhi High Court's decision in Writ Petition No.686/1992, affirming that the transfer of membership from Anoop Singh to his daughter, Jasjit Kaur, was valid and that she was entitled to the allotment of a plot. The Court noted that the society's refusal to allot the plot based on the non-filing of an affidavit was unjustified, as the society had previously accepted the transfer. The Court emphasized the need for adherence to cooperative principles and the rights of members under the relevant cooperative laws.
