JAIDEV INDER SINGH vs AMRITSAR IMPROVEMENT TRUST

The Supreme Court upheld the dismissal of the appellant's writ petition challenging the Trust's refusal to release additional land under the Punjab Town Improvement Trust Act, 1922. The Court noted that the appellant and his family had already been allotted 250 sq. yards each and had previously settled claims through a compromise, thus barring further claims. The Court emphasized that the two acquisitions were distinct and the conditions of the earlier compromise were binding, leading to the conclusion that the Trust's decision was justified under the relevant rules.
