Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal challenging the notifications under the Land Acquisition Act, 1894, specifically Sections 4, 6, 9, and 10. The Court found the appellants' claim of not being afforded an opportunity for a personal hearing under Section 5A to be baseless and factually incorrect, emphasizing the need for parties invoking equitable jurisdiction to come with clean hands. The Court also held that the exclusion of wakf properties in the notification did not violate Article 14 of the Constitution, as the appellants failed to establish discrimination against non-Muslim charitable institutions.
