Section 64 LARR Act 2013 | Compassionate Claims for Tree Compensation Barred After Statutory Award; Remedy Limited to Collector’s Review : Bombay HC
The Bombay High Court has ruled that once a statutory land acquisition award fixes compensation at zero for trees, no further relief can be granted on grounds of compassion or hardship, even for senior citizens or women. The only recourse lies in invoking Section 64 of the LARR Act 2013 to challenge the award’s quantum - not through writ petitions seeking equitable relief. This reinforces the finality of statutory compensation determinations and curbs judicial overreach into administrative valuation.
