We are not inclined to admit this appeal, which pertains to acquisition of land in Vilappil Village for the purpose of construction of dumping yard for the Thiruvananthapuram Corporation at Villappil. The Land Acquisition Officer included this property in category-C and awarded land value at the rate of Rs.11213.80 per Are. The reference court, relying on Ext.A1 judgment, refixed the land value at Rs.24,700/- per Are. We are informed by the learned Government Pleader herself that for properties in category-B, for which slightly higher value was awarded by the Land Acquisition Officer, this court has already approved refixation at the rate of Rs.24,700/-. But it is seen that in Ext.A1, the Land Acquisition Officer had awarded the same land value as was awarded to the respondent in this case. Ext.A1 was certainly a relevant judgment. In view of Ext.A1, the court below was justified in refixing at the rate presently granted. The appeal will stand dismissed. LAA.No.2179/2008 2 The learned Government Pleader submits that certain mistakes have crept into the judgment while mentioning the relevant dates and figures. We permit the learned Government Pleader to move the reference court itself with appropriate application for correction under Sections 152 and 153 of the Code of Civil Procedure.
