Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal by the State of U.P. against the High Court's order, affirming that the disputed property was not included in the Notifications under Section 4(1) and Section 6 of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894. The Court held that once an Award is passed, no corrections can be made to the Notifications, and the provisions for correction under Section 13A only apply to clerical mistakes within six months. The Court clarified that this judgment does not prevent the appellants from initiating fresh acquisition proceedings for the disputed property.
