Article 14 | No Preferential Land Allotment for Ex-MLAs Without Transparent Policy : Jharkhand HC
The Jharkhand High Court struck down any claim to state land based solely on prior political office, ruling that such preferential treatment violates constitutional equality. This sets a critical precedent for public resource allocation, ensuring that land grants must follow objective, non-discriminatory criteria-not personal influence or status.
