Section 3A(2) National Highways Act | Brief Description Suffices Without Physical Plan Attachment for Notification: Andhra Pradesh HC
The Andhra Pradesh High Court ruled that under Section 3A(2) of the National Highways Act, 1956, a brief description of the proposed acquisition is sufficient-physical attachment of the plan is not mandatory as long as it is available for public inspection. This lowers administrative burdens on NHAI and state agencies while preserving landowners' right to inspect plans, reinforcing procedural fairness in highway acquisition.
