Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the issue of land valuation fixed by the Reference Court, emphasizing that the Requisitioning Authority was not notified during the valuation process. The Court held that the Reference Court should consider the accepted land value of Rs. 10,000/- per cottah for adjoining land as referenced in LRA Case No. 363/93(v). The appeal was disposed of with directions for the Reference Court to resolve the matter within two months, ensuring adherence to legal procedures.
