casestatus.in Summary

Summary of Ram Piari v. Land Acquisition Collector, Solan (1996) The Supreme Court partially allowed the appeal against the High Court's compensation reduction in a land acquisition case for Parwanoo township. The Court ruled that the High Court erred in reducing compensation below the Collector's offer for Kuhal and Katuhal lands (Rs.14,195 and Rs.9,425 per bigha respectively), as Section 25 of the Land Acquisition Act prohibits reducing compensation below the Collector's award. For other agricultural lands, the Court upheld the High Court's approach of deducting developmental charges but reduced it from 50% to 33⅓% of the market value (Rs.14,195 per bigha), awarding 30% solatium and interest as prescribed.
