When the matter came up for consideration earlier on 14.07.2025, the co-ordinate Bench of this Court had permitted the complainant to produce material to show that a road had been laid on the complainant's property without acquisition of the land. When the matter was taken up today, there is no appearance for the complainant and no material is also placed on record.
However, to give one last opportunity to the complainant to substantiate the contentions and to produce material to show that a road has been laid on the property of the complainant, list this matter on 03.09.2026.
