CWP No. 11658 of 2008 1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. C.W.P.No. 11658 of 2008 Date of decision 10 .7.2008 Om Parkash ...Petitioner Versus State of Haryana and others ... Respondents. CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE M.M. KUMAR HON'BLE MRS. JUSTICE SABINA Present: Mr. Adish Gupta, Advocate for the petitioner. M.M.KUMAR, J. The instant petition is directed against notification dated 24.1.2008 issued under Section 4 read with Section 17 of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894 (for brevity 'the Act') and notification dated 25.1.2008 issued under Section 6 read with Section 17 of the Act (Annexures P.1 and P.2 respectively). The public purpose of acquisition as specified in both the notifications is the development and utilization of master plan road, green belt and part of residential Sector 34, Faridabad under the Haryana Urban Develop;ment Authority Act, 1977. The afore- mentioned purpose of construction of road and green belt would itself be insufficient to invoke the urgency clause. The notifications have been issued with a promptitude without any delay. It cannot be said that the urgency provision has been invoked to stifle inquiry and opportunity of hearing objections under Section 5A of the Act. Once the land is required for construction of road as per master plan and green belt the acquisition as well as invoking urgency provisions would be justified as also the dispensing CWP No. 11658 of 2008 2 with objections under Section 5 A of the Act. We find no merit in the petition. Dismissed. (M.M.Kumar) Judge (Sabina) 10 .7.2008 Judge okg
