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 for Small and Medium Towns. The Court found that the Central Government had no privity of contract with the appellant, as the funding was contingent upon prior approval which was not secured before the scheme's discontinuation. The Court emphasized that the Municipal Council's unilateral contract award does not impose financial obligations on the Central Government, affirming the High Court's decision.
