Judgment text excerpt
The case concerns the validity of land acquisition proceedings under the Land Acquisition Act where a prior notification had been quashed. The appellants challenged the fresh notification issued under Section 4(1) and the subsequent declaration under Section 6. The High Court had previously annulled the notification on the grounds that the underlying development scheme did not apply to the specific lands in question.
