Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision that the land acquisition process had 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 acquisition notifications from 1989 and 1990 did not meet the statutory requirements, leading to the conclusion that the land in question could not be acquired. The ruling emphasizes the importance of adhering to procedural mandates in land acquisition cases.
