It said, “Having taken note of the factual aspects on record, as well as the observation made by the Hon'ble Supreme Court with a clear indication to complete the entire project, at the earliest, to facilitate the public at large, in Bangalore, I am of the view that, no interference is called for in respect of nullifying the acquisition proceedings.” In regards to delay in passing the award as well as in some petitions, award having not been passed, the court said “the respondent-BDA shall take necessary steps to pass award insofar the land utilized for the said project at the earliest and to pay the compensation to the land losers, taking into consideration Article 300A of Constitution of India.” The Court then emphasised that while acquiring land for the purpose of construction of the road, acquisition is to be made for other incidental purposes also including providing facilities for the truck terminals, fuel station, sky walk, bus depots and other general facilities etc., to be used by the pedestrians, etc.
