Lakshmamma vs Commnr. Bangalore Dev. Auth.

The Supreme Court held that the orders of the Bangalore Development Authority, which declined to restore 'khata' in the name of the appellant, were vitiated by non-application of mind as the appellant's membership was affirmed by the Registrar of Co-operative Societies. The Court emphasized that the allotments made to non-Scheduled Caste individuals were illegal and thus the cancellation of the appellant's 'khata' was unsustainable. The Court set aside the High Court's order and directed the restoration of 'khata' in the appellant's name, allowing the appeal.
