casestatus.in Summary

Summary The Supreme Court dismissed the Union of India's review petition challenging the High Court's quashing of land acquisition notifications for Shakuntala Gupta's Grand Hotel property in Delhi. The Court upheld the earlier Banwari Lal decision, finding that the Lt. Governor's expression of urgency under Section 17(1) of the Land Acquisition Act was insufficient and defective—a ground common to all fourteen properties covered by the composite notification, making the acquisition unsustainable for the respondent's premises as well. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
