Thus, based on this established legal principle, the commission observed that the failure to deliver possession constitutes a continuous wrong, and the Complainant is allowed to file the present complaint before this commission. However, the commission found no provision specifying the timeframe within which the builder was required to hand over possession of the flat to the Complainant.
