Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court held that the High Court's order directing the demolition of houses constructed by the appellant, an international charitable organization, was unjust as it failed to consider the rights of the occupants who were not made parties to the writ petition. The Court emphasized the necessity of hearing all affected parties before passing such orders, as mandated by principles of natural justice. The Court set aside the High Court's order, allowing the appellant to rectify any construction defects instead of demolition, thereby upholding the rights of the allottees under Article 21.
