Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court modified the High Court's order regarding compensation for unauthorized construction on the appellant's land, holding that Defendant No.2 should pay Rs.1,50,000 to the appellant instead of the previously ordered Rs.35,000. The Court emphasized the need for adequate compensation reflecting the value of the property, which was originally valued between Rs.10,000 and Rs.15,000 at the time of the suit in 1974. The appeal was allowed in part, ensuring the appellant receives just compensation within six months.
