Vijay caught in land deal

The Tamil Nadu Housing Board had allotted 27 cents of vacant land in Chennai to Vijay during the year 2007. Following this, the original owner of the land had filed a petition in the High Court of Madras claiming that an individual can be allotted not more that one ground of land and this allocation is against the law. The petitioner claimed that the land originally belonged to him, but the housing board acquired the land from him to be utilized for building housing board tenements in the year 1969. However, the project did not take off till date and he came to learn through his sources that the said land had been allotted to actor Vijay.

Apart from seeking a stay order against constructing any structure in the disputed land, the petitioner also prayed to have the land reallotted to him.
