Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court modified the High Court's order, directing Defendant No.2 to pay Rs.1,50,000 to the plaintiff-appellant in lieu of her property, which was originally valued between Rs.10,000 and Rs.15,000 at the time of filing the suit in 1974. The Court emphasized the need for fair compensation based on the totality of circumstances. The appeal was allowed in part, ensuring timely payment within six months.
