Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the claims of Premkunvarba and Harendrakumar under the Gujarat Agricultural Lands Ceiling Act, 1960, after the appellant withdrew the challenge to the constitutional validity of the Act. The Court found that the High Court had not considered the claims made by the appellants and thus remitted the case for de novo consideration. The Court emphasized the need for expedited proceedings given the 16 years of litigation, directing the High Court to schedule a hearing without adjournments.
