Revenue Law
Right to Fair Compensation (Land)
A landowner's right to receive fair, adequate compensation when their land is compulsorily acquired by the government for a public purpose.
Compensation for compulsorily acquired land is calculated according to specific statutory criteria, including market value and additional statutory benefits, aimed at ensuring landowners aren't left worse off simply because their land was needed for a public project.
Landowners can challenge the adequacy of the compensation offered through the process the acquisition law provides.
