Orders
Summary: The High Court of Jammu & Kashmir modified the lower court's judgment and remanded the matter for reconsideration. The court recognized that the final award confirmed the deceased appellant Baj Singh's house was acquired for Mata Vaishno Devi University, and directed the Collector to verify the acquisition and assess whether the deceased met eligibility criteria for a residential plot under the University's Executive Council resolution. If eligible, the appellants (as legal heirs) must be allotted one residential plot within three months, disregarding any alternative structure built subsequently out of necessity. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
