IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH C.R. No.82 of 2008 Date of Decision:- 18.03.2008 Improvement Trust, Khanna through its Executive Officer ....Petitioner(s) through Mr.Rajdeep Singh Cheema, Advocate vs. Suraj Parkash and another ....Respondent(s) through Mr.G.S.Punia, Advocate. *** CORAM:-HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE SURYA KANT. *** 1) Whether Reporters of the local papers may be allowed to see the judgment? 2) To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3) Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? *** SURYA KANT, J. (ORAL) This revision petition is directed against the order dated 10.11.2007 passed by the learned Civil Judge (Sr.Division), Ludhiana-cum- Executing Court whereby objections preferred by the petitioner-judgment- debtor have been turned down and the respondent-decree-holders have been held entitled to some more payments. The claim pertains to the satisfaction of the award passed by the Tribunal under the Punjab Town Improvement Trust Act. While the respondent-landowners claim that the compensation amount including solatium as well as interest thereupon has not been paid to them as per the law, including a recent judgment of the Hon'ble Supreme Court regarding liability to pay interest upon solatium, the petitioner-judgment-debtor, namely, the Improvement Trust, contends that as per their calculations C.R. No.82 of 2008 -2- and the undisputed payments already made, the entire claim stands satisfied. Unfortunately, the details regarding payments and/or the claim made by the respondents have not been dealt with by the learned Executing Court in the impugned order. Consequently, this revision petition is allowed to the extent that the impugned order dated 10.11.2007 is set aside and the learned Executing Court is directed to redetermine entitlement of the respondent- land owners in accordance with law in respect of each claim like (i) payment of the principal amount (ii) solatium and (iii) interest on solatium, separately and then to determine as to whether or not the award passed by the Tribunal has been fully satisfied. The needful shall be done as early as possible, however, preferably within two months. Dasti. March 18, 2008 ( SURYA KANT ) poonam JUDGE
