https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=193106 Under the Land Acquisition Act, withdrawal from acquisition remains permissible until possession is lawfully taken, because vesting in the Government occurs only on actual possession under section 16 or, in urgency cases, under section 17(1). Notifications under sections 4 and 6, or notice under section 9(1), do not by themselves transfer title or create statutory vesting. Section 17(1) also requires an express governmental direction to the Collector to take possession in an urgency situation; urgency alone is insufficient. On the stated facts, no such direction or lawful possession was shown, so no vesting could be inferred to defeat withdrawal. en-us Tue, 25 Jan 1972 00:00:00 +0530 Thu, 13 Jul 2017 16:52:12 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=193106 Under the Land Acquisition Act, withdrawal from acquisition remains permissible until possession is lawfully taken, because vesting in the Government occurs only on actual possession under section 16 or, in urgency cases, under section 17(1).
