Case Note & Summary

The case involved a review application filed by the petitioner regarding the cancellation of allotment of industrial plots. The petitioner, Hazara Singh Mavi, contended that the cancellation directly affected his rights as he was an allottee. The court noted that a previous decision in CWP No. 8486 of 1990 had already quashed the cancellation of allotments, thereby rendering the review application unnecessary. The petitioner was present in court and expressed unawareness of the cancellation of allotments. The court clarified that any rights the petitioner had would follow the directions given in CWP No. 3310 of 1990. Ultimately, the court dismissed the review application as unnecessary, confirming that the earlier judgment had already addressed the issue at hand.
