Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court ruled that the appellants, owners of land earmarked for road use, retain ownership of the property since no road was constructed as per the City Development Authority's approval. The Court held that the appellants are entitled to compensation for the land when acquired by the competent authority, affirming their absolute ownership of the 'A' schedule property. The Court also addressed the encroachment issue, emphasizing the need for proper legal recourse to reclaim possession of the 'B' schedule property.
