Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the dismissal of the appellant's writ appeal challenging the acquisition of land under the Karnataka Industrial Areas Development Act, specifically Sections 28(1) and 28(4). The Court ruled that the appellant's claims regarding the land being outside the Framework Agreement were previously litigated and rejected, establishing the principle of constructive res judicata. The Court affirmed that the acquisition proceedings were valid as they had been upheld in earlier judgments, including the necessity of passing an award under Section 11A of the Land Acquisition Act, which was found not to invalidate the proceedings.
