THIS LAND ACQUISITION APPEAL HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 12/07/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: PIUS C. KURIAKOSE & C.K.ABDUL REHIM, JJ. ----------------------------------------------- LAA. No.746 of 2010 ----------------------------------------------- Dated this the 12th day of July, 2010 J U D G M E N T Pius C.Kuriakose, J. Even though several attractive grounds have been raised in this appeal and Smt.R.Bindu, learned Govt. Pleader addressed strenuous arguments on the basis of those grounds we are not inclined to entertain this appeal which pertains to acquisition of land in Bepore Village for construction of railway over bridge at Meenchantha. The relevant Section 4(1) notification was published on 1-2- 2001. The L.A. Officer awarded land value at the rate of Rs.22,590/- per cent. The Reference Court on evaluating the evidence which came on record re-fixed the same at Rs.60,000/- per cent by the impugned judgment. We are of the view that it is more or less the correct market value prevalent at the relevant time which has been arrived at by the learned Sub Judge. At any rate, the Government cannot LAA. No. 746/10 -2- have any legitimate grievance against this judgment. The appeal is dismissed in limine. (PIUS C.KURIAKOSE, JUDGE) (C.K.ABDUL REHIM, JUDGE) ksv/-
