This appeal by the government pertains to acquisition of land in Ayyanthole village for the purpose of establishment of Industrial Development Plot at Puzhakkalpadom. The relevant Section 4(1) notification was published on 28-1-2001. The land acquisition officer awarded land value at the rate of Rs. 3710/- per Are which was enhanced by the reference court to Rs.7042.35/- per Are. By our judgment in L.A.A.No.9/2007, we have approved enhancement at the same rate for acquisition of identical properties. For the reasons stated in that judgment, this appeal preferred by the government is liable to be dismissed. Hence the same is dismissed. PIUS.C.KURIAKOSE JUDGE P.Q.BARKATH ALI JUDGE sv. sv.
