Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed appeals concerning land acquisition under the Land Acquisition Act, specifically Sections 4, 6, and 11. The Court held that the Reference Court erred by relying solely on the testimony of one witness without considering relevant sale deeds, which led to an inadequate determination of compensation. The judgment of the Gujarat High Court was set aside, and the matter was remanded for reconsideration of the evidence and proper assessment of compensation.
