A detailed counter affidavit has been filed on behalf of the respondents stating that the land acquisition proceedings have already been initiated insofar as the houses of 12 petitioners are concerned and compensation has also been paid to them. Insofar as the other 6 petitioners are concerned, according to the counter, they never had any house property in the land acquired. Therefore, they are not entitled for any compensation for the houses. In view of the above, I am of the considered opinion that no further orders are necessary to be passed in the Writ Petition. Therefore, the Writ Petition is closed. No costs. 10-7-2006 prk
