S.A. JALALUDDIN vs BANGALORE DEV. ATY.

The Supreme Court upheld the Karnataka High Court's decision regarding the validity of the notification issued under Section 18(1)(a) of The City of Bangalore Improvement Act, 1945, rejecting the appellant's claim that the notification was barred by limitation under the Land Acquisition (Karnataka Amendment and Validation) Act, 1967. The Court clarified that the amendments to the Central Land Acquisition Act do not apply to the proceedings initiated under the Bangalore Act, thus affirming the authority of the Board to issue the notification. The appeal was dismissed, confirming the validity of the acquisition proceedings.
