Section 3G National Highway Act | Valid Land Title Mandatory for Compensation; Village Council Passes for Agricultural Land Insufficient: Gauhati HC

Village Council passes, even for agricultural purposes, do not establish title under Mizoram land laws, leaving landowners without remedy for acquisition. The ruling underscores the need for clear documentation in land disputes affecting infrastructure projects.
