Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's order directing compliance with the arbitrator's award under the Requisitioning and Acquisition of Immovable Property Act, 1952. The Court confirmed that the appellant was required to pay the awarded compensation of Rs. 9000 per acre along with solatium and interest, as the appellant failed to comply with the arbitrator's decision. The Court emphasized the binding nature of the arbitrator's award under Section 8 and Section 11 of the Act, rejecting the appellant's appeal against the High Court's ruling.
