The High Court of Bombay (Aurangabad Bench) disposed of the writ petition by directing the respondent State authorities to decide the petitioner's representation seeking compensation for land acquired in 1963 within 12 weeks on its own merits. The court found that the representation, forwarded on 14.02.2020, remained pending without decision for an unreasonable period, warranting judicial intervention to ensure timely disposal. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
