The lands of the claimants to an extent of Ac.53-39½ gts. situated at Sarvapur, Kowkonda, Vellampalli and Nadikuda villages of Parkal Mandal, Warangal District, were acquired for excavation of Kakatiya Canal, pursuant to 4(1) Notification, dated 28-11-1987, and the Land Acquisition Officer passed award, dated 08-12-1988 fixing the market value @ Rs.9,200/- per acre for dry land and Rs.13,000/- per acre for wet land. Aggrieved thereby, on the request made by the claimants, the reference was made and the Reference Court, after conducting due enquiry, enhanced the compensation from Rs.9,200/- to Rs.22,500/- per acre for dry land and Rs.13,000/- to Rs.25,000/- for wet land. Being aggrieved by the same, the present appeal is filed by the Government. We have perused the impugned order. We are of the opinion that the Reference Court, after considering the oral and documentary evidence, rightly enhanced the compensation from Rs.9,200/- to Rs.22,500/- per acre for dry land and Rs.13,000/- to Rs.25,000/- per acre for wet land and this court does not find any ground to interfere with the impugned order. Therefore, the appeal is devoid of merits and the same is liable to be dismissed. Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed. There shall be no order as to costs. ________________ V.ESWARAIAH, J ________________ K.S.APPA RAO, J Date: 02-12-2011 Prv
