Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the cancellation of land allotment by the Haryana Urban Development Authority, emphasizing the necessity of adhering to the terms outlined in the allotment letter. The Court held that the appellant's failure to accept the allotment within the stipulated time led to the automatic cancellation of the allotment as per Clause 4 of the allotment letter. The Court affirmed the High Court's dismissal of the writ petition, citing inordinate delay and lack of reasonable grounds to invoke Article 226 of the Constitution of India.
