Respondents failed to prove refugee status of Late Shri Madan Lal and his occupation of site before August 1950 as required for Category-A benefit. Court held Single Judge incorrectly reversed burden of proof on DDA and wrongly applied preponderance of probabilities principle. DDA had already provided Category-B benefit to Madan Lal and separate plot to respondent's father-in-law under Category-A. Court emphasized scheme is state largesse, not entitlement, and factual disputes should be decided by civil forum. en-us Wed, 23 Nov 2022 00:00:00 +0530 Fri, 03 May 2024 20:09:33 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=313845 Delhi HC allowed DDA's appeal regarding accommodation under Gadgil Assurance Scheme for Pakistan evacuees.
