The plaintiff purchased this plot of land with a view to construct a house thereon but being in service outside Delhi he cold not raise the construction.

(3.) Despite a legal notice dated 15.2.82, the defendant did not meet the demand of the plaintiff which necessitated him to file the present suit.
