C30 A right came to be vested with the petitioner society on transfer of the land to it way back in 1958!59, which was followed by a formal order of transfer that came to be issued by virtue of the provisions contained in Rule 11 of the Rules. This vested right, it is well setttled proposition of law, cannot be taken away by the amendments brought about in the rules retrospectively. We need not support the aforesaid observations by judicial precedents, the same being, as mentioned above, settled by now.

However, we will only make a mention of one judgment on the issue in Garikapati Veeraya versus N, Subhas Choudhry and others (2), wherein after holding that right of appeal was not a mere matter of procedure but was a substantive right, it was further held that a vested right of appeal could be taken away only by a subsequent enactment, if it so provides expressly or by necessary intendment and not otherwise.
