Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court ruled that under the Madhya Pradesh Cooperative Society Act, 1960, the appellant's claim to the land was valid as the first respondent had executed an agreement to sell and delivered possession of the land, which was further supported by subsequent affidavits. The Court held that the first respondent's later claims of ownership were inconsistent with his previous declarations and actions, thus affirming the appellant's rights to the land. The Court emphasized the binding nature of the agreements made under the Land Acquisition Act, 1894, particularly Sections 4 and 6, in relation to the acquisition process.
