casestatus.in Summary

SUMMARY: Santosh Sharma v. Union of India (C.A. 2774/2006) The Supreme Court dismissed Santosh Sharma's appeal challenging the land acquisition of two plots (Khasra Nos. 409 and 410/1) in Delhi for planned development. The Court held that Sharma lacked standing to sue because the acquired land had been transferred to third parties who raised construction and operated factories there. Additionally, the petition was fatally delayed—filed 35 years after the first acquisition (1965) and 20 years after the second (1980)—making it barred by laches. The Court rejected arguments that the acquisition violated procedural requirements under the Land Acquisition Act, 1894. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
