casestatus.in Summary

Summary: Pandurang's agricultural land was acquired under the Land Acquisition Act with an award passed on 29/12/1997. He filed a reference application under Section 18 seeking enhanced compensation, but the Collector rejected it as six days late. The High Court dismissed his revision petition. The Supreme Court upheld the dismissal, holding that the Collector is not a court under the Limitation Act and cannot extend the six-week deadline for filing reference applications, regardless of Maharashtra's amendment treating the Collector as subordinate to the High Court for revision purposes. The appeal was dismissed on 21 January 2003. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
