notification dated 9.2.1977 and OP No. 1 was to allot the plots but the
same was not done but when CWP No. 2659 of 1981 was filed in the
Hon'ble High Court of Punjab & Haryana, OP No. 1 allotted 281 plots
of various sizes with plot in dispute to the complainant after litigation
in Courts or with Govt. of Punjab Departments was over then the plot
was allotted on 9.5.1993. Ex. C-2 is the letter with regard to
provisional allotment of the plots. Vide resolution No. 359 dated
17.11.1994 Ex. C-18, it was decided by the opposite party to charge
NCF from the allottees, however, the Govt. of Punjab vide their letter
dated 22.4.1999 Ex. C-20 directed all the Improvement Trusts
including the appellant not to charge non-construction charges,
interest and any other penal interest in respect of those plots which
were remained under stay or subject matter under litigation either in
the Courts or with the Punjab Govt.. After getting the site plan
sanctioned on 16.6.1997, the complainant raised the construction but
till the year 2001, there was no development in the area, therefore,

was made in the Rules in the year 2005 i.e. 15.12.2005 whereas the
plot was allotted in the year 1993 and amendment in the Act cannot

the possession was not delivered to the complainant and in case the

cannot be demanded as held by the Hon'ble Supreme Court in case
"Haryana Urban Development Authority (HUDA) Vs. Shanti Devi",
2005 (1) CLT 496 (Supreme Court), therefore, the complainant was
not required to pay the non-construction fine/charges and the charges
have been deposited by the complainant due to coercive method
adopted by OP No. 1. Regarding enhancement charges the
indemnity bond was executed by the Society in favour of the Trust
and not by the individual, therefore, Society can demand the charges
not Ops. Accordingly, the complaint was allowed and OP No. 1 was
directed to refund non-construction fine of Rs. 1,39,200/-, Rs. 2300/-
and development charges of Rs. 52,800/- but prayer for the refund of
enhancement charges of Rs. 17,080/- was declined.
