Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the dismissal of the appellant's writ petition seeking disbursement of funds under the Urban Infrastructure Development Scheme, noting that the Central Government had not released the funds and there was no privity of contract between the appellant and the Central Government. The Court emphasized that the Municipal Council's unilateral decision to award the contract without prior sanction of funds does not create a financial obligation on the Union. The judgment clarifies the necessity of funding approval before contract awards under government schemes.
