Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the Karnataka Industrial Area Development Board's acquisition of land under Section 28(1) of the Karnataka Industrial Area Development Board Act, 1966 was valid despite objections raised by the appellants regarding the availability of alternative government land and lack of personal hearing under Section 28(3). The Court emphasized that the Board's decision was based on technical feasibility and necessity for the project, thus upholding the acquisition. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the lower court's ruling.
