We do not find any ground to admit this appeal by the government. The case pertains to acquisition of land in Kothanalloor village for the purpose of MVIP pursuant to Section 4(1) notification dated 1-10-2002. The land acquisition officer awarded land value at the rate of Rs.13649/- per Are. The reference court on the basis of the evidence which consisted of Ext.A1, testimony of AW1 and Exts.R1 to R3 refixed the land value at the rate of Rs.23203/-. There was no counter oral evidence to the testimony of AW1. Ext.A1 was a relevant judgment. Having gone through the impugned judgment, we are of the view that the enhancement presently granted is quite reasonable and there is no warrant for interference . The appeal will stand dismissed.
