But I find that the first prayer in the original petition for a declaration that the Petroleum Pipeline Acquisition of Right of User in Land Act 1962 is unconstitutional cannot be granted since the constitutionality of that statute has already been upheld by this court in other writ petitions. The other prayers in the original petition are for a direction to the respondents to pay periodical rent to the petitioner for the continued user of the petitioners land and also for payment of adequate compensation for the crop loss being occasioned to the petitioner. As for these prayers, the legal representatives of the first respondent who is no more will have the liberty to approach the Central Government or any other party concerned with appropriate representation.
