Supreme Court News: The Supreme Court has ruled on Tuesday (April 1) on the bulldozer action held in Prayagraj in 2021. The court has ordered a compensation of Rs 10 lakh to 5 petitioners to Prayagraj Development Authority. This compensation will be given within 6 weeks. The court also said that it was wrong to demolish the house within 24 hours of receiving the notice and it is considered illegal.

The victims said that the state government accidentally accepted their land as the property of gangster Atik Ahmed. Due to this, the houses of a lawyer, a professor and three others were dropped in Prayagraj.
During this time, the Supreme Court had said that the state government will rebuild the houses which have been accidentally demolished. If you (Attorney General) want to challenge this, you can fight a legal battle by filing an affidavit.
