IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA MJC No.2273 of 2009 KRISHNA DEVI & ORS Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 2 29.7.2009 On hearing counsel for the petitioners the order, dated 16.7.2009 passed in CWJC No. 3872 of 2009 is clarified and modified to the extent indicated hereinafter. Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that their lands have been acquired and Phulwaria Dam has been built in the year 1981. The lands of the petitioners were notified in the years 1991, 1992 and 1993. However, no payments were made. It is submitted that since two years have lapsed since the notification, the State Government will have to re-notify the land in question in order to prepare the award. In the special circumstances of this case since there is no dispute with respect to acquisition of the petitioners’ lands, I directed that the State Government should re-notify the lands which were earlier notified in 1991, 1992 and 1993. The petitioners may file an application before the Collector of the districts giving khata and plot numbers of the lands along with the notification of the land in question. The Collector will take steps to re-notify the lands within a period of three months from the date of receipt of such an application. This modification application is disposed of with the aforesaid observations. haque (Sheema Ali Khan, J.)
