Case Summary: Gian Chand v. State of Haryana (C.A. No. 006668-006669/2013) The Supreme Court allowed the appeals and quashed the land acquisition of 483 acres in Pinjore, Haryana for residential sector development. The Court found that the Land Acquisition Collector failed to comply with mandatory Section 5A(2) procedures by mechanically signing pre-filled recommendations without objectively considering landowners' objections. The State Government must follow proper acquisition procedures if it wishes to re-acquire the land, and appellants remain free to raise all objections in future proceedings.
