Haryana State Industrial Dev.Corp vs Shakuntla & Ors

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision to set aside the Notifications under Sections 4 and 6 of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894, regarding the acquisition of lands in Village Khandsa, stating that the acquisition was discriminatory. The Court emphasized that the land of the respondent, which contained a pucca structure, was treated unfairly compared to similarly situated lands that were released from acquisition. The Court affirmed the High Court's order for the release of the respondent's land, contingent upon maintaining a green belt and paying requisite charges to the HSIDC.
