AMAR SINGH vs NATHPA JHAKRI POWER CORPN. . — C.A. No. 2234 - 2235/2002

Case Summary: Amar Singh v. Nathpa Jhakri Power Corporation Outcome: The Supreme Court allowed Amar Singh's appeals on March 13, 2002, setting aside the High Court's dismissal order dated July 9, 1999 (in CWP 854/94) and the review petition order dated September 28, 1999. Key Issue: The case involved land acquisition by Nathpa Jhakri Power Corporation, with disputes regarding rehabilitation scheme applicability and compensation refund. The respondent initially offered to return the land if the appellant refunded compensation, but this fell through as the appellant could not refund the amount already received. Direction: The Court remitted the matter back to the High Court for fresh consideration and decision on merits, as the High Court had dismissed the writ petition without addressing the parties' substantive contentions. No costs awarded. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
