The Supreme Court dismissed the special leave petitions, holding that the land acquisition proceedings did not lapse under Section 11-A of the Land Acquisition Act. The Court ruled that since the petitioner obtained interim court orders restraining the Land Acquisition Officer from proceeding with the acquisition from 1982 onwards, the two-year deadline for making an award was excluded under the Explanation to Section 11-A, and therefore the acquisition could continue despite the delay in passing the award.
