State Of Orissa & Anr vs Abani Ballav Dey & Ors

The Supreme Court dismissed the application for intervention and upheld the High Court's order regarding the compromise under Order 23 Rule 3 of the CPC. The Court noted that the compromise required permission from the Commissioner of Endowments as per Section 19 of the Orissa Hindu Religious Endowments Act (OHRE Act), and the objections raised by the Commissioner regarding the low compensation and the interest of the institution were valid. The Court concluded that the compromise was not maintainable due to the lack of necessary permissions, affirming the High Court's decision.
