State Of Haryana & Anr vs Kul Bhushan & Ors

The Supreme Court upheld the dismissal of the Regular Second Appeal, affirming that the mandatory provisions of Sections 4 and 5 of the Punjab Scheduled Roads and Controller Areas (Restrictions of Unregulated Development) Act, 1963 were not complied with. The Court noted that the question of whether notice had been served was a factual matter, not a legal one. However, the Court granted the appellants the liberty to pursue remedies under the Act, modifying the lower court's judgment accordingly.
