IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH C.W.P NO.2436 OF 2009 DECIDED ON : 16.02.2009 Shanker Dass ...Petitioner versus State of Punjab and another ...Respondents CORAM : HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE SURYA KANT Present : Mr. Sanjay Gupta, Advocate, for the petitioner. SURYA KANT, J. (ORAL) The petitioner's grievance is that he is not being handed over the possession of Plot No. 554-B, in Vikas Scheme of 1700 acre (Surya Enclave) at Jalandhar, allotted to him by the Improvement Trust, Jalandhar. The record reveals that the above-stated plot was allotted to the petitioner vide memo dated 31.08.2006 (Annexure P-1) and he was required to raise the construction upto 31.12.2008. The petitioner, however, claims that the possession of the plot has not been handed over to him so far, despite his representations dated 09.06.2008 (Annexure P-2) and subsequent reminders, placed on record. Having heard learned counsel for the petitioner and without expressing any views on the merits of the petitioner's allegation that the possession has not been handed over to him so far, I deem it appropriate to dispose of this writ petition C.W.P NO.2436 OF 2009 -2- with a direction to Improvement Trust, Jalandhar to hand over the possession of the plot, if the same has already not been offered, to the petitioner, provided that there is no other legal impediment. This order, however, shall not absolve the petitioner from the consequences, if any, arising due to non-construction of the site in terms of the allotment letter dated 31.08.2006. The needful shall be done by the Improvement Trust within two months from the date of receipt of certified copy of this order. FEBRUARY 16, 2009 (SURYA KANT) shalini JUDGE
