Respondent 3 was posted as Superintendent, Military Farm Meerut Cantonment. In that capacity, he was alloted Gevernment Quarter No. 47, belonging to the Union of India.

The notice required respondent 3 to vacate the same as early as possible as the sams was required for providing family accommodation to other essential staff of the Farm.
