Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court emphasized the importance of adhering to the principles established in prior judgments, specifically referencing Section 17(3A) of the Land Acquisition Act. The Court held that the failure to pay 80% of the due compensation to claimants, as mandated, is a significant oversight that affects the validity of the proceedings. The judgment in Satendra Prasad Jain & Ors. v. State of U.P. was reaffirmed as applicable, leading to the dismissal of the appellants' appeals on merits.
