IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.9842 of 2009 SATYENDRA KUMAR MISHRA Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 2 18.8.2009 The land of the petitioner bearing Khesra no.90 and 2272, Khata no.1380, Thana no.117 were acquired under the land acquisition proceeding and award was prepared under section 11 of the Land Acquisition Act 1894. Thereafter notice under section12 (2) of the Act was issued to the petitioner for receiving the award compensation to the tune of Rs.2,16,953.65 paise on or before 4.4.2008. The petitioner states that he went to the office of the Land Acquisition Officer who is Collector under the Act for receiving the money but no authority slip or cheque was handed over to him.The petitioner even filed representation before the District Magistrate, Chapra as well as the Land Acquisition Officer, Chapra. But the same has not been disposed of as yet. Learned counsel submits that the respondents have acted contrary to the provision of the Act by not making the aforesaid payment. The Act itself provides payment of interest etc. After hearing the learned counsel for the parties this Court observes that if the petitioner files a fresh representation before the Land Acquisition Officer Officer as well as the District Magistrate, Chapra, they will dispose of the same within two months from the date of receipt of the same. It is further observed that as the claim of the petitioner prima facie appears to be correct from the very notice issued to him under section 12 (2) of the Act for 2 receiving the money, the same should immediately be paid to the petitioner within two months thereof. With the aforesaid direction this writ application is disposed of. Anilkrsinha (Samarendra Pratap Singh, J.)
