ποΈ Allahabad HC rejects land plea after 22 years
The Allahabad High Court dismissed a 2014 plea from five legal heirs seeking land restoration in Bareilly. The court ruled that the heirs approached the court over 22 years after the state took possession of the land in 1992. The dispute involved land in village Salenagar, originally belonging to Jograj, who inherited it in 1981. The state confirmed possession was taken in 1992 following statutory proceedings under the 1976 Act. The court found the delay unjustified, leading to the dismissal of the writ petition. βοΈ
