Upon her death, her husband and three children became co-shares of the property. The government requisitioned the property in late 1970 under the West Bengal Land (Requisition and Acquisition) Act, 1948 (Act 2 of 1948) for the construction of Rash Behari Connector. Compensation notices were issued in 1987, and the compensation amount was divided among legal heirs, but one of the sons was untraceable during the acquisition proceedings.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">In 1994, it was officially recorded that one of the sons was missing and a missing diary was lodged with the police. The compensation was distributed among the claimants as legal heirs of the deceased and the compensation of the missing son was not paid due to his missing status.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">In 2000, discussions were initiated regarding compensation for the petitioner and her siblings. The petitioners requested the authorities for alternative accommodation in exchange for the acquired property, and their plea was under consideration. The petitioners filed a writ petition seeking various reliefs, including the release of withheld compensation, provision of alternative accommodation, and restoration of unused land.<\/p>\n<p><b>Moot Point<\/b><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>\n<p>Whether the acquisition notice had lapsed due to non-payment of compensation within the stipulated period?<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">Whether the petitioners are entitled to withheld compensation and alternative accommodation under the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002763211\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act, 2013<\/a>?<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><b>Court&#8217;s Verdict<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"\">The Court held that since the compensation for the land was not paid within three years of the publication of the acquisition notice under Section 4(1a) of the Act 2 of 1948, the notice had lapsed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%; margin-left: 36pt;\"><b>&#8220;&#8230;the acquisition notice under Section 4(1a) is treated to be lapsed for nonpayment of compensation in respect of the land owned by the predecessor in interest of the petitioners.
