R. F. A No. 518 of 1993 (1) In the High Court of Punjab & Haryana at Chandigarh R. F. A No. 518 of 1993 (O&M) Date of decision : 6.4.2011 State of Haryana and another .....Appellants vs Partap Singh ..... Respondent Coram: Hon'ble Mr. Justice Rajesh Bindal Present: Mr. Ashish Gupta, Assistant Advocate General, Haryana. None for the landowners. Rajesh Bindal J. This order will dispose of appeals bearing RFA Nos. 518 and 795 of 1993, as the same arise out of common award. The State has filed the appeal seeking reduction of compensation awarded to the landowner, whereas the landowner has filed the appeal seeking enhancement of compensation thereof. Briefly, the facts of the case are that the State of Haryana vide notification dated 10.1.1983 issued under Section 4 of the Act, sought to acquire land situated in revenue estate of Village Salokhra, Tehsil and District Gurgaon, for the development and utilisation thereof as residential and commercial area at Gurgaon. The Land Acquisition Collector (for short, the Collector') assessed the market value of the land @ ` 60,000/- per acre for chahi, ` 50,000/- per acre for magda and ` 40,000/- per acre for gair mumkin kind of land. On reference under Section 18 of the Act, the learned court below determined the market value of the acquired land @ ` 68/- per square yard. It is this award which is impugned in the present set of appeals by both the parties. Learned counsel for the State did not dispute that the claim made in the present set of appeals is squarely covered by Division Bench judgment of this court in RFA No. 2 of 1991 Azad Singh vs The State of Haryana and another, decided on 30.9.1997, whereby R. F. A No. 518 of 1993 (2) award of the Reference Court was upheld. The amount of compensation assessed in the present set of appeals is in the same terms. Accordingly, the claim made in the present set of appeals does not survive. In view of the above, the appeals are dismissed. 6.4.2011 (Rajesh Bindal) vs. Judge
