Bhandari, Mr. G. S. Dhaliwal and Mr. R. A. Yadav, Advocates, for the landowners. Mr. Ashish Gupta, Assistant Advocate General, Haryana. Rajesh Bindal J. This order shall dispose of aforesaid appeals and cross-objections, as the same arise out of common acquisition. The landowners are in appeal and cross-objections before this court against the award of the learned court below under the Land Acquisition Act, 1984 (for short, “the Act”) seeking further enhancement of compensation for the acquired land whereas the State of Haryana is seeking reduction in compensation. Briefly, the facts are that vide notification dated 2.7.1985, issued under Section 4 of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894 (for short, 'the Act'), the State of Haryana acquired land in the revenue estate of Village Kharag Mangoli, Hadbast No. 388, Tehsil Kalka, District Panchkula (the then District Ambala), for the development and utilisation thereof as residential and commercial area. The Land Acquisition Collector assessed the market value of the different kinds of land at different rates. Dissatisfied with the award of the Collector, the landowners/claimants filed objections. On reference under Section 18 of the Act, the learned court below, determined the market value of the acquired land at Rs. 1,20,000/- per acre. It is this award which is impugned in the present set of appeals and cross-objections. R. F. A No. 413 of 1998 -4- Learned counsel for the parties are agreed that the issues involved in the present set of appeals and cross-objections are squarely covered by the judgment of this court in RFA No. 41 of 1997– Parkash Rani vs State of Haryana decided on 29.10.2009. For the reasons recorded in Parkash Rani's case (supra), all the appeals and cross-objections are disposed of in the same terms. 28.4.2010 ( Rajesh Bindal) vs. Judge
