Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the appeal against the Bombay High Court's judgment regarding land acquisition under the Land Acquisition Act, specifically Sections 4 and 6. The Court held that the appellant was wrongfully allotted land due to a clerical error by the Circle Inspector, which was later rectified by the Collector. The Court affirmed the High Court's decision to uphold the corrective actions taken by the authorities, emphasizing that the original allotment was not valid as it pertained to land not subject to acquisition, thus dismissing the appeal.
