Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the legality of land acquisition under the Land Acquisition Act, 1894, specifically Sections 5-A and 6(1), determining that the State Government's actions were discriminatory and violated statutory provisions. The Court held that the acquisition of the appellants' land was invalid due to failure to follow due process, leading to the quashing of the acquisition notifications. The outcome favored the appellants, reinstating their rights over the land in question.
