Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal of Ismailbhai I. Kansara, who challenged the eviction order from evacuee land on which he operated an auto garage. The court upheld the lower courts' decisions, emphasizing the legality of the eviction under the Displaced Persons (Compensation and Rehabilitation) Act, 1954. The appellant's long-term occupation did not confer any legal rights over the land, which was designated for rehabilitation purposes.
