The landowner has filed appeal seeking enhancement of compensation for acquired land whereas by filing appeal the State is seeking reduction of compensation. Briefly, the facts of the case are that the State of Haryana vide notification dated 10.1.1983 issued under Section 4 of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894 (for short, `the Act'), acquired the land situated in revenue estate of Village Jharsa, Tehsil and District Gurgaon, for residential purpose at Gurgaon. The Land Acquisition Collector assessed the market value of land @ ` 60,000/- per acre for chahi, ` 50,000/- per acre for magda and ` 40,000/- per acre for gair mumkin kind of land. Dissatisfied with the award of the Collector, the landowners filed objections. On reference under Section 18 of the Act, the learned court below while relying upon its earlier award, Ex. P-1, dated 14.9.1990, determined the market value of the acquired land @ ` 68/- per square yard. It is this award which is impugned by both the parties. Learned counsel for the parties fairly submitted that the issue involved in the present appeal is squarely covered by the judgment of this court in RFA No. 2868 of 1992 Balai Ram and others vs State of Haryana and another, decided on 19.11.2008. RFA No. 1805 of 1992 -2- In view of the above, both the appeals are disposed of in terms of Balai Ram's case (supra). 19.8.2010 (Rajesh Bindal) vs. Judge
