Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed multiple civil appeals concerning land acquisition for a zonal office complex and residential quarters for Railway staff in Rajasthan. The Court emphasized the importance of adhering to the provisions of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894, particularly Sections 4 and 6, which govern the notification and declaration of acquired land. The Court held that the appellants, being land losers, are entitled to fair compensation as per the statutory requirements, thereby upholding their claims against the State of Rajasthan.
