(O&M) Harpat And Others vs Boota Singh And Others on 28 November, 2025
20. Hon'ble Supreme Court in State of Punjab v. Amar Singh
(supra) and Ram Swarup v. S.N. Maira (supra) has authorita/vely held that
an order passed without no/ce to a person, who is mandatorily required to
be heard is wholly without jurisdic/on and void ab ini/o. A void order is
non-est in the eyes of law and cannot confer any rights on any party. Vest-
ing under Sec/on 12(3) of the Haryana Ceiling Act can take effect only
where surplus land is validly declared.
