The High Court quashed the acquisition, but the Supreme Court considered whether the notifications and subsequent proceedings adhered to constitutional and statutory requirements. The Court ultimately upheld the validity of the notifications, emphasizing the importance of following due process in land acquisition cases. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the acquisition process as lawful.
