The Allahabad High Court has ruled that industrial plot allottees cannot be charged time extension fees until a formal lease deed is executed, striking down arbitrary financial demands made prior to legal possession. This protects developers and institutions from punitive charges imposed without statutory compliance, reinforcing the principle that rights and liabilities in land allotment arise only upon execution of the lease.

Rajasthan High Court reaffirms that illegal encroachments on Gram Panchayat land cannot be regularized, directing complaints to the Public Land Protection Cell for disposal within two months. The ruling underscores administrative accountability and the strict protection of public land, limiting exceptions to rare cases.
