Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the Madurai Corporation's rejection of the appellant Trust's application for construction on plots 276 and 369 was valid as these plots were reserved for public purposes under the approved layout plan LP/MR 1/75. The Court emphasized that the Trust's rights were subject to the conditions set forth in the planning regulations and that the Corporation was bound to adhere to the public purpose designation. The appeal was dismissed, upholding the High Court's decision to restrict the use of the plots for public purposes only.
