Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision to quash the cancellation of land allotment to Diamond and Gem Development Corporation Ltd. under the Rajasthan Land Acquisition Act, 1953, specifically citing Section 4(1) and Section 6. The Court established that the appellant, Rajasthan State Industrial Development and Investment Corporation (RIICO), failed to demonstrate sufficient grounds for cancellation as the respondent had made substantial progress in development. The Court directed RIICO to provide access roads as per the High Court's order, affirming the importance of adhering to statutory obligations in land allotment cases.
