Order
24/08/2026
1. The present writ petition challenges the order dated 07.08.2026 passed by the Appellate Tribunal, Jaipur Development Authority, Jaipur whereby, his appeal was dismissed.
2. The JDA has issued notices on 15.05.2026, directing him to remove the encroachment on the land earmarked for road in Khasra No.391. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that petitioner has been occupying the land for the last several years and construction of road cannot be on his property.
3. We have noticed that after measurement, it was found that 76 sq. mtrs. of land have been encroached upon by the petitioner, which was earmarked for government road and notice in this regard has been issued to him on 22.04.2026 under Section 72 of the Jaipur Development Authority Act, 1982. Rank encroachers on government property and road by claiming the right on such land
[2026:RJ-JP:34324] (2 of 2) [CW-15931/2026] on the basis of adverse possession cannot be allowed to be sustained. No equity lies in their favour.
4. The present case is also one such case. No case for interference with the order passed by the Appellate Tribunal, Jaipur Development Authority, Jaipur is made out. The writ petition is devoid of merit and is dismissed.
5. All pending applications stand disposed of.
