Authorities must complete land acquisition proceedings within a reasonable timeframe; prolonged inaction constitutes a violation of constitutional rights under Article 300A.
Prolonged inaction in land acquisition proceedings for over 17 years renders the acquisition invalid, as timely conclusion is a component of property rights under Article 300A.
The main legal point established in the judgment is that once the Final Notification is issued under the Karnataka Industrial Areas Development Act, 1966, the land vests in the State, and objections ....
Inordinate delay of 14 years in land acquisition invalidates the process, necessitating quashing of prior notifications and ensuring entitlement to compensation under the 2013 Act.
