KURIAKOSE & N.K.BALAKRISHNAN, JJ. ----------------------------------------------- LAA. No. 93 of 2006 ----------------------------------------------- Dated this the 6th day of January, 2010 J U D G M E N T Pius C.Kuriakose, J. Under challenge in this appeal preferred by the claimant is the judgment of the land acquisition reference court, Kottayam in LAR. No. 14 of 2003. The property under acquisition was in Njeezhoor Village of Vaikkom Taluk. A portion of the property was included in category - I and another portion was included in category - III. According to the petitioner, the substantial portion of the property was in category - I and only a small extent was in category - III. It was on Ext.A1 judgment in LAR. 271 of 2002 that the claimant relied on in support of her claim for enhanced value. We have gone through Ext.A1. We have gone through the impugned judgment also. We are convinced that Ext.A1 is a judgment which has probative value in the case as the same pertains to acquisition pursuant to the LAA. 92/06 -2- same notification for the same purpose and of property in the same village. As for the grievance of the appellant that the court below committed a mistake in including a small portion in category - I and the larger portion in category - III, we are of the view that the petitioner has to file proper application for correction under Sections 152 and 153 of the Code of Civil Procedure before the reference court itself. We permit the petitioner to move the reference court for correction. We make it clear that we have not entered any final findings regarding the merits of the appellant's claim for enhanced compensation, but as already stated, Ext. A1 is a relevant judgment.
