Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court examined the legality of land resumption proceedings initiated against Vice Admiral GP Panda, who had leased land to him. The High Court of Orissa had held that the land identification was proper and that the resumption process was illegal. The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's findings, emphasizing the importance of lawful procedures in land resumption cases and affirming the protection of lawful possession against illegal interference.
