Delhi High Court upholds land allotment cancellation for UNI news agency. The court ruled that United News of India failed to construct a composite office building on prime government land at 9 Rafi Marg for over four decades despite receiving the allotment in 1979. Multiple extensions granted in 1986, 1999, and 2000 went unutilized as UNI admitted financial incapacity and never finalized building plans. The Delhi police sealed the office following the March 20 court judgment, which directed immediate government possession of the property. The allotment violation stems from UNI's inability to fulfill the essential condition of construction within stipulated timeframes and its subsequent insolvency proceedings that transferred ownership to The Statesman Limited without lessor approval, fundamentally breaching the original conditional terms.
