This issue has been finally decided by the Supreme Court in case of M/s. Girnar Traders vs. State of Maharashtra and others in Civil Appeal No. 3703 of 2003 and in another connected appeal. The 2 wp 420.07 Constitution Bench has held thus, "For the reasons stated in this judgment, we hold that the MRTP Act is a self-contained code. Further, we hold that provisions introduced in the Land Acquisition Act, 1894 by Central Act 68 of 1984, limited to the extent of acquisition of land, payment of compensation and recourse to legal remedies provided under the said Act, can be read into an acquisition controlled by the provisions of Chapter VII of the MRTP Act but with a specific exception that the provisions of the Land Acquisition Act in so far as they provide different frames and consequences of default thereof including lapsing of acquisition proceedings cannot be read into the MRTP Act. Section 11A of the Land Acquisition Act being one of such provisions cannot be applied to the acquisition under Chapter VII of the MRTP Act." 02. In view thereof the petition is dismissed. [ S. S.
