    Case Summary: WP/10900/2014 Court Decision: The High Court of Bombay (Aurangabad Bench) dismissed all consolidated writ petitions challenging a 2006 land acquisition award for road widening in Tisgaon, Aurangabad. The court found substantial compliance with acquisition procedures under the Maharashtra Regional and Town Planning Act and held the acquisition valid. WP/10909/2014 was dismissed with costs of ₹50,000. Key Reasoning: The court determined petitioners had constructive knowledge of acquisition through published notifications and did not suffer prejudice. Under the MRTP Act—a self-contained code distinct from the Land Acquisition Act—provisions allowing acquisition lapse do not apply. Compensation was deposited in court; possession was legally taken via panchanama. Delay of 16 years (1998-2014) and prior dismissed petition by petitioner's brother (suppressed from court) constituted laches defeating the challenge. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
