    The High Court of Bombay dismissed Maharashtra's appeal in this land acquisition matter without interference to the lower court's judgment. The Joint District Judge, Nashik had awarded Rs. 1,89,422/- to respondent Bhagu Hanmata Zankar (against the initial Rs. 23,330/- by the land acquisition officer), and the court upheld this amount, directing the State to comply within 12 weeks, citing the meagre sums involved and excessive pendency.
