A new Section 20A and Section 20B has been inserted by the Amendment Act of 2018 in the Specific Relief Act, 1963 for infrastructure projects. Section 20A is a special provision for contracts relating to infrastructure projects and stipulates that “No injunction shall be granted by a court in a suit under this Act involving a contract relating to an infrastructure project specified in the Schedule, where granting injunction would cause impediment or delay in the progress or completion of such infrastructure project.”
Section 20B provides for designation of one or more Civil Courts as Special Courts to try a suit under the Specific Relief Act in respect of contracts relating to infrastructure projects.
