Gandhi Ashram Revamp: Gujarat HC Rejects Resident's Plea For 4 Housing Units, Says Compensation Granted By Collector 'Benevolent'

Live Law  

In a recent ruling, the Gujarat High Court dismissed plea of a long-term resident living in the precincts of the Gandhi Ashram challenging the compensation granted to her under the Ashram re-development policy, seeking additional housing units and financial compensation as offered to the other residents who were rehabilitated. The High Court thus held “In the considered opinion of this Court, the petitioner having been granted one unit as per the policy of the respondents and since the petitioner is being granted even something beyond the policy of the respondents, no interference is required at this stage”. The policy offered three rehabilitation options for the residing families within the precincts of the Gandhi Ashram that included 4BHK in prime location or 3BHK tenement nearby the Ashram or a financial compensation of Rs. He contended that her family should be considered as four different units whereas the order of the collector had granted compensation for one and a half units to the petitioner.
