THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE GODA RAGHURAM AND THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE N.R.L.NAGESWARA RAO A.S NO.2407 OF 2000 24-11-2010 BETWEEN; Land Acquisition Officer, Khammam ...Appellant vs. N.Ramanadham ...Respondent THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE GODA RAGHURAM AND THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE N.R.L.NAGESWARA RAO A.S NO.2407 OF 2000 JUDGMENT: (Per GR,J) The appeal is filed against the composite award passed by the Additional District Judge, Khammam dated 30-03-1989 in LAOP Nos.370 of 1988 and batch. The appeal is directed against the award insofar as it pertains to the order in O.P.No.386 of 1988. It is brought to our notice by the learned Government Pleader for Appeals that A.S.No.1224 of 1993 and batch were preferred by the State against the same order, dated 30-03-1989 in O.P.No.391 of 1988 and other connected O.Ps. This Court by the common judgment dated 15-09-1998 has confirmed the order and decrees passed in O.P’s against which the appeals had been instituted by the State, in view of the fact that an earlier appeal A.S.No.2472 of 1992 had confirmed the compensation fixed by the reference court at the rate of Rs.24,000/- per acre for dry land and Rs.30,000/- per acre for Aintari land though the lands were waste lands, acquired in the year 1983 for the purpose of improvement of road. This court in its Judgment dated 15-09-1998 had observed that if any review petition had been filed by the State to reconsider or review the order in A.S.No.2472 of 1992, this court would have been inclined to take a different view on the matter but no such review petition appears to have been filed. The learned Government Pleader for Appeals states that even after the judgment of this court in A.S.No.1224 of 1993 dated 15-09-1998 no review has been filed by the State against the judgment in A.S.No.2472 of 1992. It requires to be noticed that in the judgment dated 15-09-1998 referred to supra, this court had modified the order of the reference court in respect of deductions and had directed deduction of 1/10th amount from the determined as market value, since the land is waste land required for improvement of a road. In the circumstances and following the judgment of this court dated 15-09-1998 in A.S.No.1224 of 1993 and batch, we dispose of this appeal and modify the award dated 30-03-1989 insoar as O.P.No.386 of 1988 is concerned only to the extent of directing deduction of 1/10th from the amount of the market value determined by the reference Court in the order under appeal. The order in O.P.No.386 of 1988 is confirmed in other respects. Accordingly, the Appeal suit is disposed of. No order as to costs. ______________ GODA RAGHURAM,J __________________ N.R.L.NAGESWARA RAO,J 24th NOVEMBER 2010. TSNR
