NO. 41 OF 2009 = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = Dated this the 21st day of January, 2009. J U D G M E N T This is an appeal preferred against the award of the Land Acquisition Court, Kollam in LAR 180/92. The Government is the appellant before the Court. The short point that arises for determination is regarding the entitlement of interest from the date of notification till the passing of the award by the authority. A perusal of paragraph 2 of the award itself would reveal that the notification was effected on 5.8.89 and the award was passed on 16.1.90. But in paragraph 14 of the award it is stated as the date of operation from 5.8.89 till 21.11.90, the date of the award. It is only a mistake. It requires correction. I had perused the other aspects also and there is nothing to interfere except this. Therefore the award of the Court below is corrected to this extend that the claimant will be entitled to interest from 5.8.89 till 16.1.90 instead of 21.11.90. With this modification the appeal is disposed of. M.N. KRISHNAN, JUDGE. ul/-
