Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the Allahabad High Court's order directing the U.P. Housing & Development Board to allot a plot to the respondent, Namit Sharma, as a nominee of his deceased grandfather. The court emphasized the validity of the nomination made by Shri M.L. Sharma prior to his death and rejected the appellant's contention regarding the non-payment of additional registration fees. The ruling reinforces the rights of nominees in housing schemes.
