Judgment text excerpt

The appellants challenged the determination of market value for land acquired in Village Sadhora Khurd under the Land Acquisition Act. The Supreme Court reviewed whether the market value fixed by the Reference Court at Rs. 10,000 per Bigha and affirmed by the High Court was correct. The Court upheld the lower courts' findings, noting that a previous judgment regarding land acquired fourteen years prior was not a valid benchmark for fixing current market value.
