BY GOVERNMENT PLEADER SRI.R.BINDU THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 20/07/2007, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: M.N.KRISHNAN, J. ----------------------------------------- W.P(C).NO.22414 OF 2007 ----------------------------------------- Dated this the 20th day of July, 2007 JUDGMENT This Writ Petition is filed to restore the I.A which was filed to review the award of the Land Acquisition Court. Heard both sides. It appears that it is a case where the claimant was absent and in his absence an award was passed. It also appears that the Land Acquisition Court has not applied its mind to fix appropriate compensation which the claimant is entitled to. Therefore, instead of directing the review applications etc. to be considered separately, I exercise my jurisdiction to set aside the award passed by the Land Acquisition Court directing to restore the same back to file and dispose of after enabling the claimant as well as the Government to put forward their respective contentions on merits. The matter be disposed if within a period of four months from today. This shall not be cited a a precedent in other case. The Writ Petition is disposed of as above. M.N.KRISHNAN, JUDGE vgs.
