“Clearly, no prejudice was caused to the respondent/DDA as a result of the area of the said plot being smaller than what was mentioned in the e-auction notice,” the Court said.
It added,
“Arbitrariness is also writ large from the manner in which the respondent/DDA has proceeded in the matter. This is evident from the fact that although the impugned communication, whereby the said plot was sought to be withdrawn from the e-auction, was issued on 01.06.2022, it was only on 08.06.2022 that a joint inspection notice was issued by the DDA stating that a joint inspection is scheduled to be held on 10.06.2022 to measure exact area/dimensions of the said plot.”
