We do not find any reason to admit this appeal which pertains to acquisition of land in Kothanallur village for the purpose of MVIP. The relevant Section 4(1) notification was published on 1/10/2002. The land acquisition officer awarded land value at the rate of Rs. 10,237/- per Are which was enhanced by the reference court on the basis of the evidence by Rs. 7166/- per Are. It is brought to our notice that enhancement at the same rate for identical properties covered by the very same Section 4(1) notification has been approved by this court in other cases. On going through the judgment also, we find that the approach of the learned Subordinate Judge is quite reasonable. The appeal will stand dismissed. PIUS.C.KURIAKOSE JUDGE P.Q.BARKATH ALI JUDGE sv.
