Baljit Singh vs Improvement Trust Ludhiana & Anr

The Supreme Court addressed the issue of whether a transferee can claim rights to a plot of land after the original allotment has been cancelled. The Court held that the appellant, as a transferee from Smt. Shammi Verma, could not assert any independent rights over plot No.91-B since the original allotment to Verma was invalid due to her ineligibility under the applicable scheme. The Court affirmed the High Court's decision that the appellant's rights were contingent upon those of the transferor, leading to the dismissal of the appeal.
