DELHI ADMINISTRATION TR.SEC. vs UMRAO SINGH

The Supreme Court addressed the validity of the amendments made to the 1961 Scheme for land allotment under the Delhi Land Acquisition Act. The Court held that the amendments, particularly the requirement of purchasing land five years prior to the notification under Section 4, were reasonable and aimed at ensuring fair allotment practices. The Court upheld the High Court's decision, affirming that the amendments did not violate any statutory provisions and were in line with the objectives of land acquisition and rehabilitation.
