OM PRAKASH & ANR. vs STATE OF U.P. & ORS.

The Supreme Court upheld the validity of land acquisition notifications issued under Section 4(1) and Section 6 of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894, for the planned industrial development by NOIDA in Ghaziabad. The Court found that the High Court's dismissal of the writ petitions challenging the acquisition was justified, as the acquisition proceedings were not vitiated in law. Consequently, the appeals filed by the original writ petitioners were dismissed, affirming the legality of the acquisition process.
