Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's dismissal of the appellant's Writ Petition challenging the additional demand for a residential plot under the Punjab Urban Estates (Development and Regulation) Act, 1964 and the Punjab Urban Estate (Sale of Sites) Rules, 1965. The Court noted that the demand was made in accordance with statutory provisions and distinguished the case from D.S. Laungia, where the demand was quashed due to arbitrariness. The Court emphasized that the appellant's claim for a lower price was unfounded and affirmed the legality of the additional demand.
