Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the issue of land allotment by the Tamil Nadu Slum Clearance Board, where the appellant, Mrs. Ramani, contested the denial of construction permission on her allotted plot. The court found that the plot was designated for public convenience, and the appellant had commenced construction without the necessary municipal approval. Consequently, the court upheld the High Court's decision, reinforcing the importance of adhering to land use designations and obtaining requisite permissions before construction.
