Gurdev Singh vs Union Of India

The Supreme Court addressed the appeal concerning the Displaced Persons (Compensation & Rehabilitation) Act, 1954, specifically Section 22 and Section 24, regarding the valuation of property offered to Hem Singh, a displaced person. The Court held that the High Court's decision to quash the Single Judge's order, which allowed the sale of property at the 1985 valuation plus interest, was erroneous. The Court reinstated the Single Judge's order, affirming that the original writ petitioner's heirs were entitled to the property upon payment of the determined amount with interest.
