State of Haryana and others, 1995 (Vol. 1), Punjab Law Reporter 614 : 1995(1) RRR 623 (P&H).

Since definitions by Section 2(g)(4) and 2(g)(6) are so intermingled that no part can be segregated and held ultra vires and these sections having categorically transgressed the powers of the State for acquisition of land without compensation, these provisions
