Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the notification under Section 4 of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894 was valid despite the appellant's claim of non-publication in the locality, as the acquisition was for a public purpose. The Court emphasized that the appellant, being a running industry, could have raised objections under Section 5A but failed to do so, thus upholding the High Court's dismissal of the writ petition. The Court concluded that the procedural requirements of the Act were met, and the appeal was dismissed.
