Calcutta High Court upholds property rights

The Calcutta High Court recently made an important decision about property rights.

They said that a person has the right to use and enjoy property that they lawfully own without anyone else interfering.

This right is protected by the Constitution.

The court also ordered a fresh investigation into a property dispute in Purba Bardhman district.

A judge named Justice Biswaroop Chowdhury allowed a petition that was against a survey report of a disputed property.

The court emphasized that while the right to property is not a fundamental right, it is still a constitutional right that must be respected.
