casestatus.in Summary

Summary of Church of South India Trust Association v. Land Acquisition Officer & Tehsildar (C.A. No. 186-187/1998) The Supreme Court allowed the appeals of Church of South India Trust Association against the High Court's judgment on land compensation under the Land Acquisition Act, 1894. The High Court had improperly excluded registered sale deeds (30 documents) from consideration, admitting only two exhibits. The Supreme Court held that such documents are admissible under Section 51-A of the Act per its precedents and set aside the High Court's judgment. The case was remitted to the High Court for fresh reconsideration of the appeals and cross-objections in accordance with law, with no order on costs.
