Complainant is not the original purchaser of the plot of land sold by the respondent, H.P. Housing Board. He purchased the plot from the original allottee in 1988. He states that it was a malba ground and he had to spend Rs. 1,50,000/- to put it in shape for construction of the house that was in the year 1989. Complaint was filed in December, 1997.
