Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the dismissal of the review petition regarding the acquisition of land under the Land Acquisition Act, 1894, specifically referencing Section 4 and Section 6. The Court established that the appellant's claim to C.T.S.No. 211 was not valid as the acquisition process had been initiated in 1979 and the writ petition was dismissed due to lack of representation. The Court affirmed the High Court's decision, emphasizing the prolonged nature of the proceedings and the absence of merit in the review petition.
