Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the interpretation of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894, particularly Section 11A, in relation to the Maharashtra Regional and Town Planning Act, 1966. The Court held that the provisions of the Land Acquisition Act, as amended by Central Act 68 of 1984, should be read into the MRTP Act for land acquisition, thereby overruling the previous decision in State of Maharashtra v. Sant Joginder Singh. The matter was referred to a larger bench for further consideration, establishing that Section 11A is integral to defining rights under the MRTP Act.
