Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the appellant's challenge against the auction sale of his property initiated by the government, asserting that the proceedings were flawed due to lack of proper inquiry into market value. The Court allowed the appellant to settle his dues under the applicable Amnesty Scheme, stating that if he complies, the auction proceedings could be recalled and the property restored. The Court directed that any application filed by the appellant regarding this matter be resolved within three months, and the amount previously deposited would be adjusted against his dues.
