KAILASH N. DWIVEDI vs STATE OF U.P. — C.A. No. 2885/2001

Summary: Kailash N. Dwivedi v. State of U.P. (C.A. No. 2885/2001) The Supreme Court dismissed the appellants' appeals challenging the High Court's dismissal of their writ petitions seeking release of land acquired in 1959 under a development scheme. The Court held that the scheme continued under the 1959 Act and could not lapse; moreover, the appellants lost standing by accepting compensation and could not later seek release after 30+ years, especially since portions were transferred to the State Industrial Development Corporation and developed with allotted industrial plots.
