HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE A. GOPAL REDDY AND HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA. ELANGO A.S. No. 1003 OF 2002 BETWEEN The Special Deputy Collector, Land Acquisition, N.S.Project, Tiruvuru …Appellant/Referring Officer And VajralaBrahma Reddy ….Respondent/claimant HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE A. GOPAL REDDY AND HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA. ELANGO A.S. No. 1003 OF 2002 JUDGMENT: (Per Hon’ble Sri Justice A. Gopal Reddy) The Special Deputy Collector, Land Acquisition, N.S.Project, Tiruvuru, preferred this appeal questioning the enhancement of compensation made by the learned Senior Civil Judge, Nuzvid, in the Judgment dated 1.10.1999 passed in O.P.No. 41 of 1985. The land to an extent of Ac.1.68 cents covered by Sy.Nos. 209/1B1 and 206/2 of Chilukurivarigudem in Mylavaram Mandal, Krishna District, belonging to the Claimant, was acquired by the Government for the public purpose The Land Acquisition Oﬃcer, after completing all the due and necessary formalities, ﬁxed market value of the acquired land at Rs.1,500/- per acre. On a reference being made, the Reference Court ﬁxed the market value of the mango trees existing in the acquired land at Rs.16000/- and did not award any separate compensation for the acquired land other than the compensation awarded by the Land Acquisition Oﬃcer. Aggrieved by the said enhancement, the present appeal is preferred. The value of the appeal itself is Rs.14,500/-. Having regard to the trivial and insigniﬁcant nature of the amount involved in the matter, we are of the concerned opinion that this appeal ought not to have been bee preferred by the State. Therefore, we are not inclined to entertain this appeal and adjudicate the same on merits. The appeal is therefore dismissed. However, this judgment shall not operate as precedent for the purpose of determining the compensation in respect of other lands, if any, acquired even in the same village and shall not have any binding precedent value. It is needless to mention that the claimant is entitled to all the statutory beneﬁts as laid down by the Supreme Court in the Case of Sunder Vs.Union of India (2001 SC 3516). The appeal is dismissed. There shall be no order as to costs. --------------------------------------- JUSTICE A. GOPAL REDDY ----------------------------------- JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO Date: 10-06-2010. Msnr.
