PIRTHI vs MOHAN SINGH .

The Supreme Court upheld the dismissal of the appellant's suit for pre-emption under the Punjab Pre-emption (Haryana Amendment) Act, 1995, ruling that the right of pre-emption based on co-sharership is no longer available to the plaintiffs as they do not qualify as tenants under the amended law. The Court clarified that the amendment applies to all pending cases, thus affirming the lower courts' decisions that the plaintiffs lacked locus standi to pursue their claim. Consequently, the appeal was dismissed, maintaining the High Court's ruling.
