assessse purchased house on loan from bank and claimed exemption of Rs.50 lakhs u/s 54 in return of income

now assessee claimed deduction u/s 80C towards principal amount of home loan repaid.

in the above case there is double deduction.. at first u/s 54 and again u/s 80C..

is the above double deduction justified..??
