The suit filed against Vijay

The suit filed against Vijay by a Chennai resident Karthikeyan was dismissed by the High Court of Madras, yesterday.Karthikeyan had filed a petition alleging that the Housing Board’s allotment of about four grounds of land to Vijay was illegal. The petitioner contended that the land originally belonged to his father but the Housing Board took over the land to construct a housing colony. Since the land was not used for the intended purpose he claimed the property back.
The Housing Board replied to the above contention of the petitioner stating that Vijay had been allotted the land to compensate the loss he incurred on making an auction bid. The disputed land was allotted to Vijay as the land that he bought in the Housing Board auction could not be utilized for building purposes. Following this, the court dismissed the suit.
