SHRI JAGDISH SINGH vs STATE OF HARYANA & ORS.

The Supreme Court upheld the compensation awarded for land acquisition, affirming the High Court's uniform rate of Rs.10/- per sq. yard for the entire land, as it found no merit in the appellant's claim for higher compensation. The Court emphasized that the determination of land value is a matter of factual appreciation and that the evidence presented did not warrant a different conclusion. The appeal was dismissed without costs, reinforcing the lower courts' findings on compensation.
