Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the Division Bench's decision in LPA No.1457 of 2009, affirming the auction of Ghurandera Kilagarai Ghat under the Bihar Government's guidelines. The Court ruled that the appellant-society's acceptance of the bid amount of Rs.16,00,100/- was valid despite being under protest, and that the society's claim for a re-evaluation of the bid amount based on previous years' rates lacked merit. The Court emphasized that the jurisdiction to question the bid amount was not within the purview of the judiciary, thus dismissing the appeal.
