Release of premises from requisitioning

(1) When any premises requisitioned under section 468A are to be released from requisitioning the possession thereof shall be delivered to the person from whom possession was taken at the time of the requisition or if there was no such person to the person deemed by the requisitioning authority to be the owner of such premises and such delivery of possession shall be a full discharge of the requisiting authority 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 468A 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, requisitioning authority shall cause a notice declaring that such premises are released from the requisitioning to be affixed on some conspicuous part of such premises and on the notice board of the office of the Corporation. (3) When a notice is affixed on the notice board as provided in sub- section (2), the premises specified in such notice shall cease to be subject to requisitioning on and from the date of such affixing of the notice and be deemed to have been delivered to the person entitled to possession thereof and the requisitioning authority or Corporation shall not be liable for any compensation or other claim in respect of such premises for any period after the said date.
