But having gone through the impugned judgment, we feel that the enhancement granted cannot be said to be excessive. The property was in Muttathara village within the area of Thiruvananthapuram City and the enhancement is by 55% over what was awarded by the Land Acquisition Officer. We do not find any warrant for interference. The appeal will stand dismissed. No costs. PIUS C. KURIAKOSE JUDGE K. SURENDRA MOHAN JUDGE kns/-
