Nagarkar, Advocate holding for Mr. H.T. Joshi, Advocate for the appellant. Mr. A.M. Hazare, Advocate holding for Mr. A.B. Kale, Advocate for respdt. no 1 CORAM : K. U. CHANDIWAL, J. DATE : 30 th November, 2009 1 Heard. 2 Award in terms of section 18 of the Land Acquisition Act in LAR no. 137/1993 decided by the learned Jt. Civil Judge, Sr.Dn., Jalgaon on 21-4-1998 is assailed by the appellant M.S.E.B. through its Executive Engineer, Bhusawal, being interested party. 3 On going through the judgment of land reference under challenge, it is seen that the learned Judge has taken into 2 consideration the market value in prevalence at the time of publication of notification under section 4 of the Act. The village Pkimpalesekam, Tq. Bhusawal is at a distance of 1 km from village Nimbhora of which sale-instances were produced. Considering the different land references in which the learned Judge has recorded finding, I do not see any error on the part of the learned Judge in award of compensation in terms of section 18 of the Land Acquisition Act, in favour of original claimant / respondent. Appeal lacks merit. it is dismissed. ( K.U. CHANDIWAL, J.) dyb / office /fa1997.09.odt
