The Land Acquisition Act (LAA), 1894, is a “law for the acquisition of land
needed for public purposes and for companies and for determining the
amount of compensation to be paid on account of such acquisition”. The
exercise of the power of acquisition has been limited to public purposes. The
principles laid down for the determination of compensation, as clarified by
judicial pronouncements made from time to time, reflect the anxiety of the
law-giver to compensate those who have been deprived of property,
adequately. It is with this end in view that the association of the persons
interested in the property with the process of determination of its negotiated
market value by the Collector is a highlight of this Act.
The main sections of LAA 1894 for acquisition of land are briefly described in
Table 3.1. The LAA 1894 comprises of 8 parts having 55 sections. Part II of
this Act deals with the land acquisition procedures. This part contains 14
sections, starting from Section 4 to Section 17, with 5A, 12A, 16A and 17A as
additions to the original Sections. Table 3.1 covers the salient section of the
LAA, 1894
