What the court decided

Outcome

¶159

Issue for consideration

Whether the endorsement dated 24.05.2023 of the Mysore Municipal Corporation reclassifying Sy.No.39/1A as 'B-Karab' land was sustainable, despite the 1976 allotment of 14 sites and residential construction carried out from 1983 onwards. +1 more

¶152

Court's answer

Once the decision had been taken to change the B-Karab land in Katha No.39/1A for allotment to 14 allottees for residential construction, and the allottees/subsequent purchasers had in fact constructed from 1983 onwards, the decision of the Mysore Municipal Corporation to re-change the said land as 'B-Karab' land was wholly improper, unjustified and arbitrary.

¶158

Ratio / Principle

No error was found in the impugned judgment and order of the learned Single Judge warranting interference by this Court; the writ appeals were accordingly dismissed without costs.

¶159

Detailed headnote1 paragraphs

Division Bench of the High Court of Karnataka (D K Singh and S Rachaiah, JJ.; oral judgment per D K Singh, J.) dated 06.01.2026 dismissed eight writ appeals (WA Nos. 993, 995, 999, 1001, 1008, 1011, 1016 and 1040 of 2024, LB-RES) filed by the Zonal Commissioner, Zonal Office-02, and the Commissioner, Mysuru City Corporation, challenging learned Single Judge orders setting aside the Corporation's endorsement dated 24.05.2023, by which land in Sy.No.39/1A (1 acre 7 guntas, Koppallur Village, Kasaba Hobli, Mysore Taluk) was stated to have been reclassified as 'B-Karab'. Fourteen sites had been allotted therein by allotment letter dated 12.04.1976 by Srirampura Grama Panchayath; construction licences issued from 1983 onwards, Completion Certificates followed, and Katha/E-Katha stood issued; the Grama Panchayath amalgamated with the Mysore Municipal Corporation in 2017. Holding that re-changing such long-allotted and built-upon land as 'B-Karab' was wholly improper, unjustified and arbitrary, the Bench found no error in the Single Judge's orders and dismissed the appeals without costs.
