Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the High Court, affirming that the respondent was eligible for allotment of a plot under the Rohini Scheme despite owning a flat measuring 62.22 sq.m, as it fell below the 65 sq.m threshold specified in Clause 1(ii) of the Terms and Conditions. The Court clarified that ownership of a flat below the specified area does not disqualify an applicant from receiving an allotment. The cancellation of the allotment by the Delhi Development Authority was quashed, and the appeal was dismissed.
