Motor Vehicles Rules, 1994 (Madhya Pradesh) - Concept of taking decision by majority of votes of the members is very much present in the scheme of the Rules.

9. Mahavir v. Union of India, (2018) 3 SCC 588
Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Settlement Act, 2013 - the cases in which there is deliberate action of the owners for not collecting the compensation and they do not want to receive it, section 24(2) of the 2013 Act does not come to their rescue as provisions are to help those persons who are deprived of compensation but not for those who deliberately had not received it and litigated for decades for quashing of proceedings avoiding to receive compensation by willful act. The failure to deposit in court under section 31(1) in such cases would attract only interest as envisaged under section 34 of the Act and the provisions of section 24 cannot be so invoked in such cases.
