Judgment text excerpt
The case involves a challenge by landowners against notifications issued under Sections 4(1) and 6(1) of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894, for the acquisition of land for a Co-operative Housing Society. The High Court Division Bench had quashed the notifications, reversing a Single Judge's decision. The Supreme Court examined the validity of the acquisition process and the authority of the state to acquire land for private housing societies.
