Headnote | Karnataka Land Revenue Act, 1964-Sections 6, 95-Conversion of agricultural land for non-agricultural use-Grant of permission-Power and procedure-Scheme for construction of villa~Power to grant approval conferred on Deputy Commissioner~Diversion of use sought in respect of large number of plots of land-Whether State Government was competent to exercise power u/s 95-Held, Yes-Whether State Government was required to fallow procedure laid down in sec. 6 before passing order approving the scheme-Held, No. Constitution of India, 1950-Art. 226-Public interest litigation--Scheme for construction of villas on bank of river-Grant of permission for conversion of agricultural land for non agricultural uses-Challenged-Whether construction of township on bank of the river would adversely affect quantity and quality of water to city of Bangalore-Held, No.The appellant submitted a proposal for a scheme of developing a garden colony of 270 country type plots of one acre or more having a villa each. After taking into consideration the views expressed by various authorities, the State Government granted the sanction. The petitioners, residents of the city of Bangalore filed Writ petitions by way of public interest litigation challenging the order of the State Government on the ground that construction of township on the banks of Arkavati River will affect both the quality and quantity of water in the river which would be injurious to the interests of the people residing in the city of Bangalore. Allowing the writ petitions, the High Court set aside the order passed by the State Government. Hence these appeals. The issues raised for consideration were (i) whether in passing the order giving its approval to the proposed scheme has the State Government kept in view the interest of the Public in the matter of pollution of the water of the river and water reservoirs and the availability of supply of water to the city of Bangalore; and (ii) whether the approval of the proposed scheme by the State Govern- ment suffers from an infirmity justifying interference by the court in exercise of its power of judicial review. |

NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources.
