THE GREATER MOHALI AREA DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY vs ARMINDERJIT KAUR

The Supreme Court upheld the interim orders of the High Court regarding land acquisition compensation, emphasizing the need for the appellant to deposit the awarded sum of Rs.3.50 crores per acre within three months. The Court clarified that upon such deposit, the landowners are entitled to withdraw 50% of the amount after providing solvent security, with the remaining 50% to be invested in a fixed deposit scheme. The Court's holding reinforces the procedural requirements in land acquisition cases under the Land Acquisition Act.
