Skipped land acquisition hearing? Supreme Court says you can’t claim denial later

 The Supreme Court upheld land acquisition for a Jaipur Metro rail depot. Landowners failed to appear for hearings and pursue their objections. The court ruled their conduct barred claims of denied hearings under the 1894 Act. Authorities largely followed required processes for land acquisition. Landowners can still seek higher compensation for their acquired property. The Supreme Court upheld land acquisition for a Jaipur Metro rail depot.
