Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court dismissed the appeals, holding that the appellant failed to comply with the statutory requirements under Section 24(2) of the Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act, 2013. The Court clarified that there was no stay affecting the respondents' lands, as the stay was only applicable to a different case. Consequently, the appellant was not prevented from taking possession or paying compensation, leading to the dismissal of the appeals for lack of merit.
