https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=192957 Inquiry under section 5A of the Land Acquisition Act is an administrative step in the acquisition process, not a quasi-judicial lis requiring adjudication by an outside authority. The Government's decisive satisfaction is formed under section 6, and the section 5A objection process serves only to inform that satisfaction by allowing objectors to place material before the Government through the Collector's report and recommendations. Limited rebuttal and cross-examination rights in the rules do not transform the inquiry into a judicial proceeding. The challenge to the inquiry therefore failed, and the petition was dismissed with costs. en-us Thu, 22 Mar 1962 00:00:00 +0530 Wed, 05 Jul 2017 17:07:34 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=192957 Inquiry under section 5A of the Land Acquisition Act is an administrative step in the acquisition process, not a quasi-judicial lis requiring adjudication by an outside authority.
