RFA No. 282 of 2004 2.9.2009 Present: Mr. Vivek Thakur, Addl. A.G. with Mr. J. S. Rana, Asstt. A.G. for the appellants. Mr. Rupinder Singh, Advocate, for respondents No. 1, 2(a) to 2(d) and 3. Parties submit that the present appeal is squarely covered by a decision rendered by this Court on 17.12.2008 in RFA No. 281 of 2004, titled as State of H.P. and others versus Krishan Dutt and other connected matters. In fact the acquisition proceedings are similar and the Court below had decided the Land Reference Petition by way of common impugned award. Respondent No. 2 herein had expired hence the present appeal, in the absence of the legal heirs having been brought on record could not be decided alongwith the aforesaid appeals. Consequently the appeal filed by the appellants is dismissed. The Registry is directed to place a copy of order dated 17.12.2008 passed in RFA No. 281 of 2004 in the file of this case. Power of attorney taken on record. (Sanjay Karol), Judge. September 2, 2009 (PK)
