Case Summary: Padam Menon v. State of Punjab Outcome: Supreme Court allowed the appeal on April 12, 2001. The Court held that advocate Padam Menon qualifies as a "professional" under Category 14 of the 1976 notification and was wrongly denied plot allotment. The State was directed to grant approval for a 250 sq. yard plot in Ajnala Development Scheme at September 1996 rates within eight weeks, crediting his prior Rs. 2,000 deposit. Key Issue: Whether a part-time legal adviser to Amritsar Improvement Trust who is a regularly-practicing advocate falls under "Employees" or "Professionals" category for plot allotment purposes.
