Delhi Development Authority Vs. Shashi Rani

Court: Delhi

Decided on: Oct-22-1975

Reported in: 1976RLR208

B.C. Misra, J.(1) It is next submitted that the plaintiff respondent does not have legal right in the matter and the lower appellate court was clearly in error in holding that the matter had been concluded by a contract or that the plaintiff- respondent had acquired any right in the land. In my opinion the right that the plaintiff- respondent possesses is to see that qua her the appellant acts according to law and the statutory scheme framed under Section 22 of the Development Act and the appropriate rules and directions of the Lt. Governor. The respondent is feeling aggrieved by the non-allotment of the polt of land in dispute and she certainly has a right to see that the appellant performs its duties in her favor according to law. equity and good conscience.

Reported in: 1976CriLJ1285; 1976RLR189

M.R.A. Ansari (1) In the writ petition, the petitioners had challenged virus of Ss. 4 and 29(2) of the Act. on the ground that these violate the fundamental rights of the petitioners guaranteed under Articles 14 and 19(l)(f) of the Constitution. Mr. R P.

Mr. Kapur, however challenged the virus of section 29(2) of the Act on the ground that it was an arbitrary piece of legislation and did not lay down any guidelines for the imposition of penalties provided under section 29(2) of the Act. In support of this ground, he argued that the penalty provided under section 29(2) of the Act was far too excessive in considering the nature of th...

Court: Delhi

Decided on: Oct-06-1975

Reported in: AIR1976Delhi179

ORDER1.

This question, on account of which apparently the petition had been admitted, however, does not survive and was, thereforee, not pressed on behalf of the tenant in view of a decision of the Division Bench of this Court in Civil Writ No. 1059 of 1972 decided on 12-3-1975 = (Reported in 1975 Lab Ic 1715, where a similar question arising under the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947, was answered, in the negative.2.

T.P.S. Chawla, J.1. There are three petitions under Articles 226 and 227 of the Constitution of India before me. The petitioner in each of them has been manufacturing soap for the last many years. For diverse periods falling between September 1962 and 29th February 1964, the petitioners were required to pay excise duty on the soap manufactured by them at a rate higher than that which they considered was applicable. Nevertheless, they paid by duty demanded, under protest, and then applied for the refund of what the alleged to be the excess. The Assistant Collector of Central Excise rejected their claims. Appeals to the Collector of Central Excise, and petitions for revision to the Central Government were dismissed.
