Estate Offr.Haryana Urban Dev.Auth. vs Gopi Chand Atreja

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision to dismiss the appellants' second appeal on the grounds of limitation, specifically noting that the delay of 1942 days was inordinate and inadequately explained. The Court emphasized that the appellants, being a statutory authority under the Haryana Urban Development Authority Act, 1977, had a legal department and should have been aware of the adverse orders against them. Consequently, the Court found no merit in the appeals and affirmed the High Court's ruling.
