Summary:
The high court had transferred the case to the civil court and asked it to adjudicate. After that, several Gurugram administrators passed a series of contradictory orders that saw ownership of the land swinging between the private parties and the government. Caveats have been filed in 20 more cases, which means an order can be passed only after hearing the entity against which the MCG approached court. “As per the Punjab Village Common Land Act, the land belongs to the panchayat,” said MCG commissioner Yashpal Yadav.Private parties in the case refused to comment.One of the private entities, Metro Valley Projects, had moved the high court over ownership of the land. In total, 322 affected entities have filed 118 different suits in this case, at the heart of which lies 464 acres of prime land in Gwalpahari, off Gurugram-Faridabad road..
