In the High Court of Punjab & Haryana at Chandigarh Civil Misc. Nos. 10349-50/CI of 2008 and R. F. A. No. 5004 of 2008 (O&M) Date of decision : 11.11.2008 State of Haryana ..... Appellant vs Smt. Kamla and another ..... Respondents Coram: Hon'ble Mr. Justice Rajesh Bindal Present: Mr. Navneet Singh, Assistant Advocate General, Haryana. Rajesh Bindal J. C.M. No. 10349/C-I/2008. For the reasons stated in the application, delay of 41 days in refiling the appeal is condoned. Civil misc. stands disposed. R. F. A. No. 5004/2008 and C.M. No. 10350/C-I/2008. The State has filed the present appeal against the award dated 17.1.2008 passed by the learned Additional District Judge, Faridabad. Along with the present appeal, an application for condonation of delay of 89 days in filing the appeal has also been filed. Briefly, the facts are that land situated in the revenue estate of Village Chandawali (Faridabad), measuring 128.36 acres was acquired vide Notification dated 12.5.1995, issued under Section 4 of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894, by the State of Haryana for development and utilisation of Sector-64, Faridabad. The Land Acquisition Collector vide award dated 6.5.1998 assessed the value of the acquired land at Rs. 4 lacs per acre. Dissatisfied with the award of the Collector, the landowners/claimants filed objections. The learned Additional District Judge, on reference under Section 18 of the Act, enhanced the compensation @ of Rs. 450/- per square yard, relying on judgment of this court in R. F. A. No. 2501 of 2001- Ved Pal and others vs State of Haryana and others, decided on 3.5.2006. As the learned court below has merely relied upon the judgment of this court in Ved Pal's case (supra) while awarding compensation to the landowners, the claim made by the State in the present appeal does not survive. Accordingly, the present appeal as well as the application for condonation of delay in filing the appeal, are dismissed. 11.11.2008 ( Rajesh Bindal) vs. Judge
