MP Mathur & Ors v. OIC & Ors, 2006 (13) SCC 706
Once the public interest is accepted as the superior equity which can override individual equity, the principle would be applicable. If there is a supervening public equity, the Government would be allowed to change its stand and has the power to withdraw from representation made by it which induced persons to take certain steps which may have gone adverse to the interest of such persons on account of such withdrawal. Merely because the resolution was announced for a particular period it did not mean that the Government could not amend and change the policy under any circumstances.
