No. 669 of 2010 ----------------------------------------------- Dated this the 7th day of July, 2010 J U D G M E N T Pius C.Kuriakose, J. We are not inclined to entertain this appeal which pertains to acquisition of land in Malappuram Village (within the area of Malappuram Municipal Town) for the purpose of construction of Munduparamba - Kootilangadi Bye Pass Road Block - III. The L.A. Officer awarded land value at the rate of Rs.11,701/- per cent which was enhanced by the Reference Court to Rs.13455/- per cent. Having gone through the impugned judgment, we are convinced that it is more or less the correct market value of the property which has been fixed by the Reference Court. At any rate, the Government cannot have any legitimate grievance regarding the award. The appeal is dismissed. No costs. 2. It is submitted by Smt. Latha T. Thankappan, Senior Govt. Pleader that the court below committed a -2- mistake while awarding the statutory interest under Section 28. We permit the Government to move the Reference Court with proper application for correction under Sections 152 and 153 of the Code of Civil Procedure.
