G. NARAYANASWAMY REDDY (DEAD) BYL.RS. AND ANR. vs GOVT. OF KARNATAKA AND ANR.

The Supreme Court dismissed the special leave petitions, emphasizing that relief under Article 136 is discretionary and requires full disclosure of facts. The Court noted that the petitioners failed to disclose interim stay orders related to the acquisition proceedings, which were material to the case. The Court held that the non-disclosure amounted to suppression of material facts, justifying the dismissal of the petitions under Section 11-A of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894, which mandates that awards must be made within two years of declaration, barring any stay orders.
