IN THE HIGH COURT OF UTTARAKHAND AT NAINITAL Special Appeal No. 77 of 2008 Bal Krishna S/o Late Sri Tota Ram R/o Village Paniyala Patti Raundramauli District Tehri Garhwal .……… Appellant Versus State of Uttarakhand and others ……… Respondents Mr. Rakesh Thapliyal, Advocate for the appellant. Mr. J.P. Joshi, Chief Standing Counsel for the respondents. JUDGMENT Coram: Hon’ble V.K. Gupta, C.J. Hon’ble J.C.S. Rawat, J. V.K. GUPTA, C. J. (Oral) The learned Single Judge has rightly dismissed the writ petition because indeed the land of the petitioner was legitimately required for public purpose and therefore the acquisition notification was issued. Even the report of the Advocate Commissioner clearly reveals that road from both the sides was constructed but the two ends did not meet because the petitioner’s land and structure raised thereupon was coming in the way. Even on that ground the petitioner’s land was in fact needed and therefore it was rightly acquired. The appeal is dismissed in limine. (J.C.S. Rawat, J.) (V.K. Gupta, C. J.) 03.06.2008 03.06.2008 Shiv
