Supreme Court on Property Rights: Limits on Government Takeover of Private Land

In a landmark judgment on November 5, 2024, the Supreme Court of India ruled that the government cannot indiscriminately acquire private property without strict adherence to procedural fairness and legal requirements. The ruling came as a response to several cases where private property was seized for development projects, with owners claiming inadequate compensation and violation of due process.

This decision reinforces constitutional protections for private property, stating that arbitrary land takeovers cannot infringe on an individual’s fundamental rights. The court highlighted the need for authorities to consult landowners and ensure fair compensation, underscoring that property rights are essential for individual liberty and economic security. This ruling is expected to impact future government-led land acquisition, ensuring transparency and equity in these processes​
