https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=182077 A presidential notification under Article 258(1) entrusting Union land acquisition functions to State Commissioners was treated by the majority as having the force of law and, read with the Bombay Reorganisation Act, 1960, as surviving the reorganisation of Bombay. The majority also held that Section 5A proceedings may be conducted by an officer specially appointed as Collector, and that the Commissioner could act on the Collector's report because the inquiry is administrative and advisory in nature. The acquisition notifications were therefore sustained, while the dissent considered the notification limited to executive functions and ineffective after reorganisation. en-us Tue, 05 Nov 1963 00:00:00 +0530 Mon, 02 May 2016 13:11:44 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=182077 A presidential notification under Article 258(1) entrusting Union land acquisition functions to State Commissioners was treated by the majority as having the force of law and, read with the Bombay Reorganisation Act, 1960, as surviving the reorganisation of Bombay.
