ASHOK KUMAR vs STATE OF HARYANA

The Supreme Court addressed the validity of a land acquisition notification under Section 4(1) of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894, and the implications of an interim injunction. The Court held that the stay order granted by the lower court remained effective until the suit was dismissed for default, emphasizing that an adjournment without a specific order vacating the stay does not imply its termination. The Court upheld the High Court's dismissal of the writ petition challenging the legality of the acquisition process, affirming the procedural correctness of the lower courts' actions.
