Orders
Case Summary: Meerut Development Authority v. Vilas Bhushan & Anr. CA No. 9071-9105/2003 | Decided: November 17, 2003 The Supreme Court disposed of batch appeals challenging land acquisition compensation valuations. The Land Acquisition Officer had valued land at Rs.30/sq.yard; the Reference Court enhanced it to Rs.126/sq.yard with statutory benefits. High Court passed inconsistent interim orders across different benches regarding deposit and withdrawal conditions. The Court modified all High Court orders uniformly: Meerut Development Authority must deposit 50% of enhanced compensation within four weeks; claimants may withdraw 25% without security, with remaining 25% invested in nationalised banks for two years. The Court directed expedited High Court hearing given the decade-old acquisition and dwindling money value.
