casestatus.in Summary

CASE SUMMARY The Supreme Court dismissed appeals by contractors and officials involved in a housing scheme in Naldurg, Maharashtra. The appellants challenged a High Court order directing authorities to investigate alleged misappropriation of government funds under the Integrated Housing and Slum Development Programme. Despite only 302 of 1206 planned houses being constructed and excess payments of ₹2.43 crores found, the court upheld the High Court's directions as justified by serious irregularities, ruling that criminal proceedings were mandatory under the *Lalita Kumari* doctrine once cognizable offences were alleged.
