WP.6739-10 - 1 - VPH IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CIVIL APPELLATE JURISDICTION CIVIL WRIT PETITION No. 6739 OF 2010 Vatsala Parisa Mangave ...Petitioner Vs. Special Land Acquisition Officer, No. 9, Sangli & Ors. ...Respondents *** Mr. Prasad S. Dani, for the Petitioner. Ms. P. S. Cardoza, AGP for the Respondents. *** CORAM: V. M. KANADE J. DATE : FEBRUARY 18, 2011 P.C. 1. The petitioner is challenging the order passed by the Additional Commissioner in the Revision Application, filed by the petitioner, herein. 2. Brief facts are that, notification was issued for acquisition of land of the petitioner and prior to that, notification under S. 11 of the said Act was issued on 30th November, 1982, an award was passed in 1989 and thereafter the Revision Application has been filed. It is a settled WP.6739-10 - 2 - position in law that once an award is passed by the Special Land Acquisition Officer, the only remedy which available to the petitioner was to challenge the said award under Art. 226 and 227 of the Constitution of India. Admittedly, no such writ petition has been filed. The petitioner, therefore, could not have challenged the said award by filing the Revision Application before the Additional Commissioner. In my view, the Additional Commissioner does not have jurisdiction to decide this issue. Hence, it will not be possible to set aside the order passed by the Additional Commissioner, particularly, because the said Additional Commissioner did not have jurisdiction and decide the Revision Application. Writ Petition is, therefore, dismissed. However, the petitioner is at liberty to adopt appropriate proceedings for challenging the award, if it is available in law. 3. The interim protection granted by this Court will continue for a period of four weeks. [ V. M. KANADE J.]
