JUDGEMENT

(1.) CHALLENGE in the present writ petition is to an order passed by the Estate Officer, Panchkula dated 8.1.2014 (Annexure P -15) in terms of the direction of this Court dated 3.9.2013 (Annexure P -13) to consider the matter afresh regarding cancellation of offer of allotment of an Industrial Plot.

(2.) LEARNED Estate Officer rejected the claim of the petitioners for the reason that the an offer to allot a plot was made to the petitioners of an industrial plot out of discretionary quota of the State Government. Such quota was withdrawn on 10.4.1989. Therefore, the cancellation of offer of allotment is legal and justified.

(3.) A Full Bench of this court in Anil Sabharwal Vs. State of Haryana and others, : 1997 (2) PLR 7, found that the allotment of residential plots by way of discretionary quota is illegal but allotments made in respect of certain categories were upheld.
