KURIAKOSE & N.K.BALAKRISHNAN, JJ. ---------------------------------- L.A.A. No.109 of 2011 ------------------------------ Dated this the 2nd day of February 2011 J U D G M E N T Pius C. Kuriakose, J. Having considered the judgment passed by this Court in L.A.A.No.867/2008 which was another case pursuant to the same acquisition, we feel that the enhancement granted under the impugned judgment by the learned Sub Judge cannot be treated as excessive. We dismiss the appeal in limine. But we notice that the learned Sub Judge has made the mistake of awarding interest under Section 28 from the date of the award itself. We clarify that interest will be admissible only from the date of dispossession. PIUS C. KURIAKOSE, JUDGE. N.K.BALAKRISHNAN, J UDGE. Jvt
