Bhubaneswar: In a significant move, the Odisha Cabinet today approved a proposal of the General Administration & Public Grievance Department to exclude from the purview of Task Force Report, allotments made under the discretionary quota which have been made in terms of the brochure and schemes to persons who are single allottees by BDA, CDA, and OSHB which can be considered as genuine.
The decision was taken in light of the recommendation made by the Task Force contained in paragraph 48 (7) of its report and which is in sync with the judgment rendered by the Court
It was further approved that since the allotment to the original single allottee can be construed as valid mutations and other post-allotment formalities in favour of the legal heirs of such allottees can be considered as proper and valid and no action needs to be taken against such allotments.
