Landmark Judgment of Supreme Court for Land Acquisition Process

" If the land owners are not paid and compensated within two years after the declaration of the acquisition of the proposed land, the whole process of acquisition fails" The Division Bench of Supreme Court of India, presided by Hon Justice Mr. G. S. Sanghavi and Hon Justice Mr.S.J. Mukhopdhyay has recently set an important landmark judgment in a well debated Appeal by the appellants, R. Indira Sharadchandra and others against Tamilnadu Housing Development Board. The time which is lapsed during the court litigation are exempted from the aforesaid period of limitation set for completion acquisition process in due course of laws. This landmark ruling will now help all those effected land owners who are awfully damaged due to the delayed process of acquisition of land.
