    Case Summary: CWP/6479/2026 The High Court of Himachal Pradesh dismissed HPSEBL's writ petition challenging a land dispute resolution. HPSEBL acquired land in 1982 including Khasra No. 1141, but during 1991-92 settlement operations, disputed land (Khasra 2939/2378) was recorded as belonging to private respondents, originating from old Khasra 1140 which was never acquired by HPSEBL. The court upheld the Divisional Commissioner's dismissal, holding that HPSEBL cannot retroactively challenge the 1978-79 consolidation operations or claim the disputed land was incorrectly separated from its acquired plot, and that the State cannot claim adverse possession over private citizens' property. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
