In Brief
These appeals concerned the release of enhanced compensation in a land acquisition case. The Supreme Court, following its earlier order in Civil Appeals 7070-7071 of 2015, directed that 50% of the enhanced compensation be released immediately without security, while the remaining 50% be released only upon furnishing security satisfactory to the Reference Court. The High Court's order was set aside and the appeals allowed.
