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.
