Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the Patna High Court, which dismissed the appellant-society's challenge against the auction of Ghurandera Kilagarai Ghat, stating that the bid amount of Rs.16,00,100/- was not arbitrary and that the court lacked jurisdiction to interfere in disputed factual matters regarding the bid. The Court emphasized that the appellant-society had accepted the bid under protest and had the option to seek remedies through appropriate forums. The Court affirmed the High Court's order directing the appellant to deposit the balance bid amount of Rs.10,80,000/- for the settlement period 2008-2009.
