Pt. Madan Swaroop Shrotiya Public ... vs State Of U.P. And Ors. on 18 January, 2000
In more or less a similar fact matrix, the Apex Court in PT.
MADAN SWAROOP SHROTIYA PUBLIC CHARITABLE TRUST
VS. STATE OF U.P. AND OTHERS (2000) 6 SCC 325 has
considered the effect of abatement of legal proceedings by
virtue of the Urban Land (Ceiling and Regulation) Repeal
Act, 1999 which has done away with the Principal Act and
held that all pending proceedings abated on their own. The
inner voice of this decision supports the case of Petitioner
that the appeal proceedings arising from the confiscation
orders being the continuation of the original proceedings,
do abate. Such a abatement causes collapse of the
9
substratum on which the Tribunal's order involving
conflicting opinion arose followed by the Reference Order
that puts the matter at the hands of its Full Bench. An
abatement renders a thing as no longer existent and thus,
the maxim ex nihilo nihil fit i.e., out of nothing, nothing
comes out, becomes invocable. The net effect of this is: the
confiscatory orders wither away; all proceedings including
the appeals in which they are put in challenge also wither
away. As a consequence, status quo ante is established qua
the ownership and possession of the lands in question.
