(2.) How the welfare policies of State or Central Governments are being misused by the 'riot victims' can be gauged from the facts of the instant case. Not even a year had passed after the concessional allotment that the petitioner sold the flat by way of General Power of Attorney to one Manmohan Singh s/o. Tirath Singh. The factum of sale of the flat is duly admitted by petitioner in para 2 of the petition which reads as follows: - "That one flat L.I.G. 1430/8, Phase XI, S.A.S. Nagar Mohali was allotted by the then Punjab Housing Development Board (presently Greater Mohali Area Development Authority) to the petitioner and the petitioner had sold the said house to Manmohan Singh in the year 1992 by way of General Power of Attorney..."
