Construction of BSF Headquarters
Chandigarh, June 15 The orders came on a petition filed by Chaman Lal and other petitioners against the state of Haryana and other respondents. They had challenged acquisition proceedings initiated with issuance of notification under Section 4, read with Section 17(2)(c), of the Land Acquisition Act dated March 14, 2008, and declaration under Section 6 dated August 8, 2008. The petitioners had contended that on the Union of India’s request, the state issued the notification expressing the intention to acquire the land for public purpose of constructing the headquarters for “AI Role Battalion of Jammu Frontier”. The petitioners had added their 15 kanals 11 marlas in Tabar village in Barwala tehsil was acquired. On March 10, 2009, they filed the petition with the grievance that urgency clause has been invoked without application of mind, evident from the fact that declaration under Section 6 was issued about five months after notification under Section 4, but possession was not been taken even after lapse of a year. The Bench of Justice MM Kumar and Justice Jitendra Chauhan asserted: “We are of the considered view that apathy adopted by the Union of India has defeated the invocation of urgency clause, although the obvious public purpose is of urgent nature and fully justified. “It is true that mere a delay in announcement of award for taking of possession may not by itself constitute a valid ground to set aside a notification issued under Section 4 and declaration made under Section 6 of the Act. However, in the present case, there is no material on record to justify such a huge delay between notification under Section 4 and 6, which were issued on March 14, 2008, and August 8, 2008…. Before parting with the orders, the Bench added: The instant petition succeeds. The impugned notification under Section 4 of the Act, and declaration under Section 6 of the Act or any other proceedings pursuance to such declaration are hereby quashed.
