[Civil Appeal No. 3008-3009 of 2010]. [Civil Appeal No. 4580 of 2010]. The controversy in the present appeals arises out of the claim of the respondent-writ petitioner, a housing society, to Transferrable Development Rights (TDR) under the relevant Development Control Regulations (DCR) i.e. N-2.4 framed under the Maharashtra Regional and Town Planning Act, 1966 (for short "the MRTP Act"). The said claim has been resisted and rejected by the Pune Municipal Corporation and the State of Maharashtra, the two appellants in the appeals under consideration, on the ground that the land in question was not reserved for a public purpose in the development plan prepared under the MRTP Act and being shown as an existing garden therein, the claim to TDR has no legal basis. There are additional grounds for the rejection, details whereof will be, noticed in the course of the narration to be made hereinafter. The land in question measured about 3.5 acres and was covered by Survey No.12 (Part) located at Kohdhava Khurd, Pune. The view of the High Court being in favour of the respondent (writ petitioner) society, the Pune Municipal Corporation and the State of Maharashtra have filed the two appeals in question. The core fact that emerges from the multitude of collaterals and the exhaustive pleadings of the parties is that the land in question was shown by the respondent Society itself in the lay out plan submitted by it to the Pune Municipal Corporation, as reserved for garden.
