Section 7F:
Release of premises from requisition.
1[7F. Release of premises from requisition.-- (1) When any premises requisitioned under section 7A
are to be released from requisition, the possession thereof shall be delivered to the person from whom
possession thereof shall be delivered to the person from whom possession was taken at the time when the
premises were requisitioned, or if there were no such person, to the person deemed by the Central
Government to be the owner of such premises, and such delivery of possession shall be a full discharge of
the Central Government from all liabilities in respect of such delivery, but shall not prejudice any rights
in respect of the premises which any other person may be entitled by due process of law to enforce
against the person to whom possession of the premises is so delivered.
(2) Where the person to whom possession of any premises requisitioned under section 7A is to be
given under sub-section (1) cannot be found or is not readily ascertainable or has no agent or any other
person empowered to accept delivery on his behalf, the Central Government shall cause a notice declaring
that such premises are released from requisition to be affixed on some conspicuous part of such premises
and publish the notice in the Official Gazette.
(3) When a notice referred to in sub-section (2) is published in the Official Gazette, the premises
specified in such notice shall cease to be subject to requisition on and from the date of such publication
and be deemed to have been delivered to the person entitled to possession thereof, and the Central
Government shall not be liable for any compensation or other claim in respect of such premises for any
period after the said date.]
