Conciliation Act, 1996 for setting aside order dated 26.08.2023 passed by the

compensation for the land acquired under the National Highways Act, 1956,
which does not fall within the purview of Section 2(c) of Commercial Courts
Act, 2015, which defines commercial disputes, therefore, this matter is not
required to be considered by this Bench i.e. Commercial Appellate Division

roster.
