HC sets two-month deadline
UT Administration told to investigate whether land belongs to gram panchayat Saurabh Malik Tribune News Service
Chandigarh, September 9 The directions by Justice Surya Kant and Justice Jaspal Singh came on a petition by Karambir Singh and other petitioners against the Chandigarh Administration and other respondents. The development is significant as the houses on the plots are liable to be demolished, if the land belongs to the gram panchayat. In their petition, Karambir Singh and others had earlier challenged notices issued by the UT Deputy Commissioner for demolition of their houses alleged to be “illegally constructed on the panchayat land”. Their counsel had claimed that the houses were not liable to be demolished in compliance with directions issued by the High Court on July 10, 2013, in the case of “Raj Pal and others versus the Union Territory and others”. Elaborating, the petitioners claimed that the directions on construction on the panchayat land were inapplicable to their case, as their plots were never vested with, or owned by, the gram panchayat. They had purchased private land for consideration through registered sale deeds. A fact-finding inquiry too was not held in accordance with principles of natural justice to determine the status of their plots and land. Taking up the matter, the Bench asserted: “Since no order prejudicial to the interest of the gram panchayat, Mauli Jagran, is being passed, we do not deem it necessary to issue notice to it at this stage…. “The short issue that arises for consideration is whether the houses constructed by the petitioners are also liable to be demolished in compliance to the directions issued by this court…. “We find that the petitioners have been served with notices dated August 29, 2014, by the Deputy Commissioner, Chandigarh, for demolition of their houses alleged to be illegally constructed on the panchayat land. The replies submitted by petitioners are said to have been overlooked under the threat of contempt of court proceedings. “In such a situation where the petitioners were not allegedly party to the earlier writ petition, it is imperative upon the authorities to consider their reply to the show-cause notices and determine whether the plot/land under their occupation is also a part of the gram panchayat/ shamlat deh land. “Needless to say that if such land/plot is also Shamlat Deh etc., the directions issued by this court on July 10, 2013, shall apply to the petitioners…. However, if they have purchased private land/property from its true owners and possess clear title, their case would be altogether different. “Let such an inquiry therefore be held within two weeks after carrying out demarcation etc., if need be, and thereafter only the authorities shall proceed to take further action in accordance with law. Till such an enquiry is held, both the parties are directed to maintain status-quo.”
