Munsif (III), Pilibhit dismissing the objection of the petitioners filed under Section 47. C.P.C. and the revision was dismissed by the District Judge, Pilibhit on 24.3.1981.3. It appears that respondent Nos. 3 to 10 to the writ petition filed a Suit No. 180 of 1968 for specific performance of a contract to sell plot No 141, area 10 bighas, out of 18 bighas to the plaintiffs on 10.2.1976.

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Oct-10-2003

Reported in: 2004(1)AWC81

M. Katju, J.1. These 19 special appeals are being disposed of by this common Judgment.2. Heard learned counsel for the parties.3. These special appeals are directed against the Judgment of the learned single Judge dated 26.11.1998 by which the learned single Judge allowed the writ petitions and cancelled the termination orders of the petitioners and directed that they shall be treated in continuous service and shall get their salaries.4. Out of these 19 special appeals, four of them relate to Azamgarh and the remaining 15 relate to Allahabad. Although the principle of law applicable to all these 19 cases are the same, there is one factual difference between the Azamgarh cases and the Allahabad cases. The four appeals relating to Azamgarh, i.e., Special Appeal Nos. 64, 65, 66 and 69 of 1999 relate to writ petitioners who were appointed and worked on temporary basis for a few days, (though as contended by the learned counsel for the U.P. Jal Nigam, it was against the clear direction of t...

Tika Ram Yadav and anr. Vs. State of U.P. and ors.

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Oct-10-2003

Reported in: (2004)1UPLBEC247

M. Katju, J.1. The problem of traffic congestion, traffic jam and parking has become a headache in most of the cities, not only in India, but in most of the countries of the World. For instance, in Allahabad about twenty five years ago one could go to the Civil Lines area on his vehicle without any problem, but today Civil Lines has become like Chowk and it is a headache to go there on a car in the evening. In Kanpur City to enter the city side from the railway station is like entering a beehive. The same is the position in the cities of Lucknow, Varanasi, Agra etc. Even the capital of the country, New Delhi has a terrible traffic problem. All this calls for careful traffic regulation by the concerned authorities so that there may be free flow of traffic and proper places for parking vehicles.2. The present petition relates to Meerut City where the Nagar Nigam by the impugned bye-laws dated 7.2.2003 (published in the U.P. Gazette dated 15.3.2003) has imposed licence fee on the buses @ ...
