This is an appeal preferred by the government against the judgment and decree of the reference court in L.A.R.No.28/1987. It is seen that the requisitioning authority- the Thodupuzha Municipality has filed separate appeal against the same judgment and decree and the same is pending before this court as L.A.A.No.89/2001. In view of the pendency of L.A.A.No.89/01, we are of the view that this appeal need not be entertained any longer. Without examining the merits of the grounds raised in this appeal, this appeal is dismissed. The merits of the grounds raised herein will be examined in L.A.A.No.89/2001.
