We have considered the rival submissions and perused the allotment order. 6. The allotment order issued by the Government in terms of Cabinet Decision No. 816, dated 02.10.1978, which was communicated to the appellant through Government Order No. 292-UD of 1980, dated 22.04.1980, reads thus- "Government Order No. 292-UD of 1980 Dated 22-4-1980 Sanction is accorded to- i/ allotment of an area of land measuring 3000 sft.

On perusal of the allotment order it is evident that the land was allotted for construction of Rotary Bhavan on lease basis for a period of 40 years on the condition to develop adjacent piece of land measuring 19,500 sft into a Children Recreation Centre. The condition having been imposed to develop the piece of land into children recreation centre, which has to be made functional, the Rotary Bhavan constructed by the appellant cannot be used for marriage/political/religious functions as well as for commercial purposes. The condition having been imposed to develop the piece of land into children recreation centre, which has to be made functional, the Rotary Bhavan constructed by the appellant cannot be used for marriage/political/religious functions as well as for commercial purposes. The object of the allotment having been mentioned with condition to maintain the adjacent park any activity to be carried out by the appellant should be without any hindrance to the children park. 8. The learned Single Judge has considered this aspect and directed the club to do activities which will not create hindrance to the children recreation centre and the learned Single Judge has prohibited the appellant from using the Rotary Bhavan/community hall for holding marriage parties/re-ceptions/kirtans or serving liquor or allied activities. The said condition imposed is in tune with the allotment order issued by the Government, based on which the appellant is in possession of the land on which it has constructed the hall. 9. Learned counsel appearing for the 1st respondent submitted that continuance of the Rotary Club in the park is causing hindrance to the residents and the land which was notified as park in the Master Plan cannot be allowed to be used for any other purpose. 10. It is to be noted at this juncture that the allotment order was issued in the year 1980. The 1st respondent kept quiet for 18 years and is raising the objection only in the year 1998. Even after filing of the writ petition 17 years have passed. The total period of lease granted to the appellant is for 40 years and said period will expire in the year 2020. In such circumstances, the appellant is allowed to use the building as permitted by the learned Single Judge in terms of the allotment order issued in the year 1980. On expiry of the period of lease, it is open to the 2nd respondent to decide as to whether it is possible to revise the lease for further period in the light of the objections raised by the 1st respondent, that the Rotary Bhavan is causing nuisance to the residents of the area and building constructed is bound to be demolished as it was allowed to be constructed in violation of the Master Plan. 11.
