KARNAIL KAUR vs STATE OF PUNJAB .

The Supreme Court addressed the appeals concerning land acquisition under the Land Acquisition Act, 1894, specifically referencing Section 4 and Section 5A. The Court held that the appellants' objections based on the principles of promissory estoppel were valid, as the State's prior scheme promised land return post-development. Consequently, the Court set aside the High Court's dismissal of the writ petitions and remanded the matter for reconsideration of the objections raised by the appellants.
