During the pendency of the writ petition challenging the land acquisition as violative of the provisions contained in Section 11A of the Land Acquisition Act, the construction of the petitioner over the subject-matter of the dispute in the writ petition has been demolished. Counsel for the petitioner submits that by resorting to such demolition the authorities are liable for violating the orders of this Court. From the order-sheet in the writ petition annexed with this contempt application it does not appear that any stay was allowed. In the circumstances, this Court is of the view that no contempt is made out but while disposing of this contempt application it is observed that in the event writ petition is allowed, the authorities will have to suitably compensate the petitioner for the loss of his construction.
