Supreme Court Upholds Property Rights in India
The Supreme Court of India reaffirmed that while the right to property is no longer a fundamental right, it remains a constitutional right under Article 300A. Originating from a case involving delayed compensation for land acquired for the Bengaluru-Mysuru Corridor, the ruling mandates proper legal authority and timely compensation for property acquisition. The court highlighted the connection between property rights and human rights like shelter and livelihood. This interpretation upholds constitutional protections, emphasizing the state’s obligation to respect due process while exercising eminent domain powers for public purposes.
