Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the validity of land acquisition proceedings under the Land Acquisition Act, 1894, specifically citing Section 4 and Section 6. The Court held that the acquisition was vitiated due to mala fide actions, as established in prior judgments, including Narayana Reddy v. State of Karnataka. The Court ultimately set aside the Division Bench's order of the Karnataka High Court, reinstating the Single Judge's dismissal of the writ petition on grounds of delay and acquiescence.
