what do you mean compnesation was partially settled in 2004?

have you not been paid full compensation for land kindly clarify

3) the Supreme Court has held that the State government cannot be compelled to return to the original owner, land acquired for public purpose, if, for some reason, the land cannot be put to use for the purpose for which it was acquired

4) If the acquired land has already been transferred to other agency [such as Housing Board] the government cannot exercise power under Section 48-B of the Act and reconvey the same to the original owner. In any case, the government cannot be compelled to reconvey the land to the original owner if the same can be utilised for any public purpose other than the one for which it was acquired.”

1) you can issue legal notice to HB to return the land as it has not been used for purpose for which it was acquired 24 years ago

2) wait for reply of the HB

3) then file writ in the HC that land is not being used for public purpose and land should be returned to you and not sold to builder

File a writ petition in high curt for two reliefs-

1. Either to return the unused land

2.Or give you full compensation with interest upto date.

You can not claim rate at todays price though you are entitled to interest till this date.

Since you have accepted the compensation and did not seek reference in civil court earlier you can not challenge the acquisition anymore.
