Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's dismissal of the writ petition challenging the eviction order under the Government Accommodation Rules, emphasizing the petitioner's obligation to vacate upon transfer. The Court noted that the petitioner had retained possession for nearly a decade, which constituted indiscipline, justifying the imposition of exemplary costs of Rs.50,000. The Court found no merit in the petitioner's challenge to the costs, affirming the High Court's decision.
