      ORAL JUDGMENT (PER SHRI R.M.SAVANT J.) :-\n<\/p>\n
      1          By the above Petition filed under Article 226<\/a> of the<\/p>\n
      Constitution of India, the Petitioners inter alia seek directions against<\/p>\n
      the Respondents to the effect that they be directed to implement the<\/p>\n
                                                         ::: Downloaded on – 09\/06\/2013 17:49:52 :::<\/span>
\n                                            2                       wp-657-2001<\/p>\n
    Town Planning Scheme of Bombay City I (Mandvi & Elphinstone<\/p>\n
    Estate) as finalized and sanctioned by the Government of Maharashtra<\/p>\n
    in regard to final plot No.136 of Town Planning Scheme of Bombay<\/p>\n
    City I (Mandvi & Elphinstone Estate). The Petitioners further seek a<\/p>\n
    relief that the Respondents be directed to hand over to the Petitioners<\/p>\n
    vacant and peaceful possession of final plot No.136 admeasuring<\/p>\n
    about 134.7 sq.yards free from all            encumbrances and pay<\/p>\n
    compensation amount of Rs.45,122\/- together with interest @ 18% p.a.<\/p>\n
    from the date of the award till realization within a specified period. The<\/p>\n
    Petitioners by prayer clause (bb) have sought quashing and setting<\/p>\n
    aside of the property tax bills issued by the Respondents in respect of<\/p>\n
    the property bearing Ward No.B-1393(1) and situated at 37-45, Kazi<\/p>\n
    Sayed Street, Masjid Bunder Road, Mumbai since 1-11-1975 till date.\n<\/p>\n
    As the prayers adverted to above discloses the issue as regards<\/p>\n
    implementation of the Town Planning Scheme in respect of the area in<\/p>\n
    question.\n<\/p>\n
    2           The draft scheme was published on 11-12-1948 under the<\/p>\n
    then Town Planning Act, by virtue of the powers conferred by the<\/p>\n
    Section 29 of the said Act. The then Government of Bombay under<\/p>\n
    Section 29 of Bombay Town Planning Act appointed an Arbitrator. The<\/p>\n
    Arbitrator Mr. G.J.Desai declared his Award on 31-3-1954 and<\/p>\n
    forwarded the proposals to the president of the Tribunal for further<\/p>\n
    action. In terms of the Award of the Arbitrator original plot No.153<\/p>\n

\n                                               3                     wp-657-2001<\/p>\n
    admeasuring 197 sq.yds. was earmarked for road widening and in lieu<\/p>\n
    thereof the Petitioners were allotted the final plot No.136 admeasuring<\/p>\n
    134.7 sq.yds The Petitioners were also directed to be paid an amount<\/p>\n
    of Rs.45,122 as compensation. On the Bombay Town Planning Act<\/p>\n
    1954 coming into force the said final scheme promulgated under the<\/p>\n
    Town Planning Act, 1915 was adopted. Thereafter, the Maharashtra<\/p>\n
    Regional and Town Planning Act, 1966 was promulgated, by virtue of<\/p>\n
    Section 165 of the said Act, the actions \/ decisions taken under the old<\/p>\n
    Town Planning Act, 1954 were saved. The Petitioners were in<\/p>\n
    possession of the original plot No.153 admeasuring 197 sq.yds.\n<\/p>\n
    Towards enforcing the said Town Planning Scheme the Respondents<\/p>\n
    took possession of the structure standing thereon without allotting the<\/p>\n
    Final Plot No.136 which was awarded to the Petitioners by the<\/p>\n
    Arbitrator in his Award as also compensation amount.               Thereafter<\/p>\n
    certain facts transpired which in our view, are not directly germane to<\/p>\n
    the issue raised in the above Petition.\n<\/p>\n
               Suffice it to say, that the tenants of the structure on plot No.<\/p>\n
    153 had filed a suit against the Respondent Corporation. The said suit<\/p>\n
    came to be decreed in favour of the Respondent No.1 Corporation<\/p>\n
    thereby the status of the Respondent No.1 as owners of the property<\/p>\n
    came to be confirmed.\n<\/p>\n
    3          As indicated above, the main substantive relief sought in the<\/p>\n
    Petition as regards the allotment of final plot no.136 admeasuring 134.7<\/p>\n

    sq.yds. which has been allotted to the Petitioners by virtue of the award<\/p>\n
    of the arbitrator in the course of implementing the Town Planning<\/p>\n
    Scheme in question, as also the payment of sum of Rs.45,122\/- as<\/p>\n
    compensation to the Petitioners. The allotment of the said final plot No.<\/p>\n
    136 has been inordinately delayed though the possession of plot No.<\/p>\n
    153 owned by the Petitioners has been taken by the Respondent No.1<\/p>\n
    as long back in the yar 1975. In so far as, the allotment of final plot No.<\/p>\n
    136 is concerned, the reasons why the same has yet not been allotted<\/p>\n
    to the Petitioners, has been mentioned in the Affidavit in reply filed on<\/p>\n
    behalf of the Respondent No.1 by Mr. Sanjay Sambare, Assistant<\/p>\n
    Engineer. The sum and substance of the reasons is that prior to the<\/p>\n
    allotment certain steps are required to be taken by the Respondent<\/p>\n
    No.1 Corporation which includes demarcation etc., This petition was<\/p>\n
    heard from time to time for final hearing. On an earlier occasion looking<\/p>\n
    to the delay in allotting final plot No.136 to the Petitioners we had<\/p>\n
    asked the Learned Senior Counsel appearing for the Respondent No.1<\/p>\n
    Corporation to fix a schedule or a time frame within which the final plot<\/p>\n
    No.136 could be allotted to the Petitioners. Pursuant to our directions,<\/p>\n
    the Learned Senior Counsel has tendered to us the letter dated<\/p>\n
    11-12-2011 of the Assistant Commissioner ‘B’ Ward, in which letter, the<\/p>\n
    schedule \/ time frame within which the final plot No.136 could be<\/p>\n
    allotted to the Petitioners, has been mentioned. We reproduce the<\/p>\n
    schedule which has been mentioned in the said letter as under:\n<\/p>\n

    identification.\n<\/p>\n
    4           Upon perusing the said letter, copy of which was handed<\/p>\n
    over to the learned Counsel for the Petitioners, the Learned Counsel<\/p>\n
    for the Petitioners Shri Murti fairly states that though the period of 8<\/p>\n
    months has been mentioned in the said letter dated 11-10-2011, the<\/p>\n
    Petitioners would not have any objection if this Court grants further<\/p>\n
    time to the Respondent No.1 for handing over the said plot No.136. In<\/p>\n
    view of the said statement made by the Learned counsel for the<\/p>\n
    Petitioners, in our view, considering that the Petitioners have already<\/p>\n

    waited for more than 25 years for allotment of the said final plot No.<\/p>\n
    136. It would be just and proper to extend the time mentioned in the<\/p>\n
    said letter dated 11-10-2011 from 8 months to one year for handing<\/p>\n
    over the said plot as also the compensation of Rs.45,122 with interest<\/p>\n
    as per the Award. Accepting the said schedule mentioned in the letter<\/p>\n
    dated 11-10-2011, we hope and trust that the final plot No.136 would<\/p>\n
    be handed over to the Petitioners. We direct the Respondent No.1<\/p>\n
    Corporation to hand over possession of the final plot No.136 latest by<\/p>\n
    31-10-2012 as also the payment of companesation.\n<\/p>\n
    6          In so far as, prayer clause (bb) of the Petition is concerned ,<\/p>\n
    it is not possible for us to go into the said aspect in this Petition. We,<\/p>\n
    therefore, deem it appropriate to direct the Petitioners to make a<\/p>\n
    representation to the Corporation for refund of the property tax that the<\/p>\n
    Petitioners have paid from the year 1975 to 2001 when the petition was<\/p>\n
    filed, annexing the relevant documents in support of the said claim<\/p>\n
    including the decree of the Civil Court as also the tax receipts. On such<\/p>\n
    representation being received, the Respondent No.1 Corporation to<\/p>\n
    consider the same and pass appropriate order in accordance with law<\/p>\n
    as regards the refund claimed by the Petitioners of the property tax<\/p>\n
    paid by them from 1975 to 2001. In the event, some amount is to be<\/p>\n
