Case History
Summary: Orissa Industrial Infrastructure Dev. Corp. v. Supai Munda (2003) The Supreme Court dismissed the petitioner's appeals and upheld the respondent's right to seek higher compensation for acquired land. The Court found that the illiterate tribal landowner received compensation under duress after being threatened that filing objections would result in forfeiture; therefore, the application for reference under Section 18 of the Land Acquisition Act was maintainable despite alleged limitation issues, and a subsequent "Award" under Section 11(2) was improperly issued after the original award had terminated proceedings.
