e. Though not arising from the above, however, many such
cases are being regularly filed under the provisions of
EPH Act, 1948 in similar circumstances, whether the
judgement of the Supreme Court in Mohinder Singh

DMC Act 1957, the provisions of DLR Act, 1954 cease
to apply and the proceedings pending thereunder would
be non est in law would also apply in a similar fashion to
proceedings pending under EPH Act, 1948 since
definition of the word "land" appears to have
commonality between the two enactments? if so, to what
effect?(regard may be had to the judgement dated
01.11.1997 passed the learned division bench of this
Court in C.W. No. 2253 of 1997 captioned as Umed
Singh vs. Government of N.C.T. of Delhi & Ors.
reported in (1997) 69 DLT 957 (DB)."
