Section 66: Power of revocation or modification of Development Permit

If it appears to the Secretary of the Municipal Corporation, Municipal Council, Town Panchayat or Village Panchayat concerned, that it is expedient that any permission granted to develop land should be either revoked or modified, having regard to a Master Plan or Detailed Town Planning Scheme prepared or under preparation under this Act or on being satisfied that the permission was issued by mistake or that a patent error has crept in it or that the permission was happened to be issued on misrepresentation of fact or law or that the development if carried on will be a threat to life or property, the Secretary of the Municipal Corporation, Municipal Council, Town Panchayat or Village Panchayat concerned may, after giving the person concerned an opportunity of being heard against such revocation or modification, either revoke the permission or modify the permission to such extent as it appears to be necessary.
