AI extract
What is this about?
Highway landowners sought revised compensation under the Acquisition Act of 2013. The court held Section 24 inapplicable to highway acquisitions but directed redetermination under the First Schedule pursuant to MoRTH guidelines, as compensation remained unpaid at the prescribed cutoff. The petitions were disposed of with a three-month compliance period.
What did the court decide?
Respondents directed to redetermine compensation and revise the award under the First Schedule within three months of production of a certified copy of the order.
