Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the Karnataka High Court regarding the land acquisition proceedings initiated under the Land Acquisition Act, 1894. The Court ruled that the compromise between the appellant and the respondent had no legal force due to the lack of sanction from the State Government, thus affirming the Trial Court's dismissal of the appellant's suit for specific performance. The Court emphasized that the government had become the absolute owner of the property following compulsory acquisition, and the appellant failed to establish the necessary grounds for relief.
