Jagdish Kumari wife of Shri Baldev Krishan has filed the present writ petition under Articles 226/227 of the Constitution for the issuance of a writ in the nature of certiorari to quash the order dated 20.5.1999, Annexure P-7 passed by respondent No. 2 and further prayed that direction be given to respondent No. 2 to fix the price of plot No. 296 allotted on 20.5.1999 as per the orders of the High Court dated 28.8.1995 at the rate of Rs. 2200/- per marla when plot No. 733 was originally allotted on 1.3.1980 instead of Rs. 2325/- per square yard as plot No. 296 has been allotted in lieu of plot No. 733, the possession of which could not be delivered for the past 19 years.

(3.) FOR the benefit of the petitioner, vide Annexure P-7 dated 20.5.1999, she was allotted a plot No. 296 of 250 sq. yards under the Development Scheme 94.5 acre, G.T. Road by-pass, Jalandhar at the rate of Rs. 2325/- per square yard, which according to the petitioner is too high.

With these premises, petitioner has prayed for the above relief.
