Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision to quash the notifications issued under Sections 4 and 6 of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894, stating that the Respondents' objections were improperly dismissed despite the existence of authorized constructions on their land. The Court emphasized that the acquisition was discriminatory as similar lands were exempted from acquisition. Consequently, the Court affirmed the High Court's ruling, maintaining the status quo regarding the land in question.
