Narasimhan discharged; certiorari sought against Joint Director KIADB order dated 14.09.2016 (Annexure-AC, No.IADB/HO/ALLOT/5202/9204/16-17); mandamus for execution of sale deed sought but not considered; filed under Articles 226 and 227, Constitution of India; High Court of Karnataka, Justice Suraj Govindaraj, 25-03-2025.
What did the court decide?
Since the notice issued to the petitioner was returned with the endorsement 'addressee has left', the Court held that no purpose would be served by issuing fresh notice, and accordingly dismissed the petition. The merits of the challenge to the impugned order and the request for execution of the sale deed were not adjudicated.
