DERA BABA NAKKI TR.M.G.PARKASH vs STATE OF PUNJAB . — SLP(C) No. 5508/2007

Summary of SLP(C) No. 005508/2007 - Dera Baba Nakki Trust v. State of Punjab Outcome: Supreme Court dismissed all special leave petitions on 28 January 2013, upholding the Land Tribunal's compensation determination of Rs.15/12/10 per square yard for three land blocks. However, the Court directed the Patiala Improvement Trust to pay any outstanding balance compensation within two months. Key Issue: Petitioners challenged the Tribunal's compensation award, claiming entitlement to Rs.40 per square yard based on nearby land sales, but the Court found the Tribunal's factual findings (that acquired land was agricultural, low-lying, flood-prone, and outside municipal limits) were reasonable and supported by evidence.
