THIS LAND ACQUISITION APPEAL HAVING BEEN FINALLY HEARD ON 06/08/2008, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: PIUS.C.KURIAKOSE, J. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - L.A.A.No.1420 OF 2008 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Dated this the 6th day of August, 2008 JUDGMENT Learned Government Pleader Sri.Basant Balaji has submitted before me very persuasively that the approach of the learned Subordinate Judge in granting enhancement of 60% by applying the rule of thumb and also in holding that the acquired property was having commercial potentiality despite the finding that it does not have any road access at all was quite unreasonable. I do find merit in the submission of the learned Government Pleader, Nevertheless, I am not inclined to admit this appeal since I find that the stakes involved in this appeal as small as Rs.4720/-. I dismiss the appeal in view of the smallness of the stakes involved. However, I make it clear that this judgment will not be quoted as a precedent for any purpose whatsoever.
