The acquisition proceedings which are subject matter of challenge in the instant petitions were initiated by issuing notification dated 14.12.2006 (Annexure P-6)under Section 4 of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894 (for brevity 'the Act') and declaration dated 18.1.2008 (Annexure P-8) issued under Section 6 of the Act. 3. Mr. H.S.Hooda, Learned Advocate General, Haryana has placed on record a communication dated 14.5.2008 received from the Director of Industries and Commerce, Haryana and has stated that the notification dated 18.1.2008 issued under Section 6 of the Act has lapsed C.W.P.No.2864 of 2008 -2- as it was issued after a period of more than one year from the date of publication of notification under Section 4 of the Act. Therefore, the writ petitions to that extent deserve to succeed. Mr. H.S.Hooda, Learned Advocate General, Haryana has further stated that fresh notification under Section 4 of the Act has now been issued which may be challenged by the aggrieved persons in accordance with law. 4. Mr. R.A.Yadav, Mr. Atul Yadav and Mr. Sanjay Mittal, learned counsel for the petitioners have submitted that in addition to challenge to acquisition proceedings, the petitioners have also made claims for other reliefs. 5. In view of the above, this petition has been rendered infructuous because notification under Section 6 of the Act has lapsed having been issued after a period of more than one year whereas any other relief claimed by the petitioners shall not cause any prejudice to them when they decide to challenge the fresh notification by filing any other petition. Accordingly the writ petitions stand disposed of. 6. A photocopy of this order be placed on the file of each connected case. (M.M.KUMAR) JUDGE (SABINA) JUDGE July 01, 2008 paramjit 1.
