Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the issue of nepotism and self-aggrandizement within a government service society, specifically concerning the transparent allotment of housing facilities by the Urban Estate and Town and Country Planning Employees Welfare Organization (HEWO). The Court emphasized that HEWO, registered under the Societies Registration Act, 1860, is constituted for charitable purposes to benefit its members. The judgment scrutinized the allotment of two super deluxe flats by HEWO, underscoring the necessity of fairness and transparency in such allotments to uphold democratic principles. The Court granted leave and proceeded to examine the matter in detail.
