Universal's The Land Acquisition Act, 1894, Edition 2025, is an English medium bare act of the old land acquisition law of India, published by Universal (LexisNexis). The book is written in English; it is not the Hindi medium edition. It gives the full text of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894 (1 of 1894), with short notes. As noted on the cover, this Act has been repealed by the Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act, 2013. However, the 1894 Act is still important for land acquisition proceedings that began under it, for many reported court cases decided under it, and for understanding how the law developed. The Act dealt with the preliminary notification and declaration of the public purpose, objections, the inquiry and award by the Collector, the determination of compensation, reference to the court, and the acquisition of land for companies. It is useful for candidates preparing for judiciary exams, LLB students (3-year and 5-year courses), and candidates preparing for other law exams.
