Government Of Nct Of Delhi vs Mohd. Zubair

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision declaring the land acquisition proceedings under the Land Acquisition Act, 1894, as lapsed under Section 24(2) of the Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act, 2013. The court found that the subsequent purchaser had the right to challenge the acquisition, and the appellants' objections regarding possession were not sufficient to overturn the High Court's ruling. Consequently, the appeal by the Government of NCT of Delhi was dismissed.
