💨 Abstract

In a significant ruling, India's Supreme Court has limited the state's power to seize private property under Article 39(b) of the Constitution. This power, originally granted due to the government's socialist ideology, has been curbed, following the evolution of the issue, which can be traced back to a 1977 minority opinion by Justice V.R. Krishna Iyer.
