* **Competent Authority's Decision:** The Competent Authority will consider the objections, conduct further inquiries if necessary, and issue an order either allowing or disallowing the objections. The Competent Authority's decision is final.
* **Availability of Information:** Land plans and other details related to the land acquisition are available for inspection at the Competent Authority's office.

**7. Implementation Aspects (Inferred):**
