Dated this the 24th day of November, 2011. JUDGMENT Pius C. Kuriakose, J. Even though the respondent was served with notice, she has not entered appearance before this Court to resist the appeal. Our attention was drawn by Sri. Shaym Kumar- learned senior Government Pleader to a judgment of this Court in LAA.No.794/2010. On going though that judgment we find that market value of the identical lands acquired for the same purpose was approved by this Court enhancing the land value at Rs.18,525/- per Are. We do not find any reason to deviate from that finding. We allow the appeal to the extent of refixing the land under acquisition at Rs.18,525/- per Are. The claimant will be entitled to all statutory benefits on the refixed compensation. Parties are directed to suffer their respective costs. PIUS C. KURIAKOSE, JUDGE. K. HARILAL, JUDGE. cl
