Orders in this case
Summary of State of Haryana v. Jai Singh The Supreme Court of India dismissed the State of Haryana's appeal, upholding the High Court's decision that unutilized "bachat land" (surplus land contributed by proprietors during consolidation but not earmarked for common purposes) must be returned to proprietors proportionally rather than vest with the State or Gram Panchayat. The Court applied constitutional law principles and consistent precedent establishing that only land reserved and used for genuine common purposes can be acquired by the State.
