Respondents Coram : Hon'ble Mr. Justice Rajesh Bindal Present: Mr. P. S. Rana, Advocate, for the landowners. Mr. D. D. Gupta, Additional Advocate General, Haryana. RAJESH BINDAL, J This order shall dispose of Regular First Appeal Nos. 4184 of 1998, 790, 791 of 1999 and 2880 of 2001, arising out of same acquisition. The State has filed appeal seeking reduction of compensation for the acquired land whereas the landowners have filed the appeals seeking enhancement thereof. Briefly the facts are that vide notification dated 22.2.1984 under Section 4 of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894 (for short, 'the Act') the State of Haryana acquired land in the revenue estate of Karnal. The Land Acquisition Collector (for short, 'the Collector') assessed the market value of the acquired land @ ` 2,14,944/- per acre for plain land and ` 1,68,000/- per acre for low lying land. Dissatisfied with the award of the collector, the landowners filed objections. On reference, the learned court below assessed the compensation for the acquired land @ ` 76/- per square yard. Aggrieved against the award of learned Court below, both the parties are in appeal before this Court. Learned counsel for the appellants submitted that the issues raised in the present set of appeals are squarely covered by judgment of this court in LPA No. 866 of 2000- Hari Singh vs State of Haryana and others decided on 16.9.2008, whereby the compensation payable to the landowners was further enhanced to ` 82/- per square yard. Learned State counsel did not dispute the aforesaid factual position. For the reasons recorded in Hari Singh's case (supra), the appeals are disposed of in the same terms. 24.12.2010.
