Dear Sir
Thank you very much for your reply. Will you kindly quote the specific rule/s or section/s from the Act that lead to the referred meaning of the quoted portion of the judgement.

1. S.4(1) notification means, notification under Land Acquisition Act.

2. Settled law normally means law pronounced by Supreme Court on the subject. This is because, law declared by Supreme Court is precedent and is binding on all lower courts in the country under Art. 141 of Constituion of India.

Mr. Murali Krishna is right. it relates to Land Acquisition act.

Dear Sirs
There is no doubt that the 4(1) notification quoted in the SC judgement is pertaining to sec 4(1) of the Land Acquisition Act of 1894.
My question is as to what is the specific LAW or ACT based on which the judgement declares that it is settled that a person who purchases land after publication of the notification under section 4 (1) does so at his/her own peril?
