Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision regarding compensation under the Rajasthan Land Acquisition Act, 1953, specifically referencing Section 4 and Section 18. The Court ruled that the Society's claims for compensation were invalid due to the void nature of its agreements with Khatedars under Section 42 of the Rajasthan Tenancy Act. The Court affirmed the direction to consider the allotment of 25% developed land to the Society, while also addressing the compensation claims of the original Khatedars.
