In Brief
The appellants challenged the High Court's interference with a land valuation determined by the Reference Court, arguing the Requisitioning Authority was not given notice. The Supreme Court acknowledged this procedural concern but did not re-adjudicate the land value itself. Instead, it directed the Reference Court to reconsider the matter with all parties present, noting that the Requisitioning Authority had previously accepted a similar rate for adjoining land. The appeal was disposed with directions for the Reference Court to finalize the matter within two months.
