The High Court of Karnataka allowed the irrigation project authority's appeal, setting aside the lower authority's award of Rs. 3,80,000 per acre compensation for acquired agricultural land. The court found the authority violated natural justice principles by rejecting the claimant's request to present evidence and basing its decision solely on a prior judgment in a different case without considering the specific characteristics of the land in question. The matter was remanded for a fresh hearing where both parties would be given opportunity to present evidence before determining the fair market value. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
