In the High Court of Punjab & Haryana at Chandigarh RFA No. 1945 of 2003 (O&M) Kirpal Singh Gill ..... Appellant vs Punjab State ..... Respondent Coram: Hon'ble Mr. Justice Rajesh Bindal Present: None for the landowners. Mr. A. S. Jatana, Additional Advocate General, Punjab. Rajesh Bindal J. This order will dispose of appeals bearing RFA Nos. 1945 and 2490 of 2003, 187 to 193, 607 and 608 of 2004, as the same arise out of common acquisition. The land owners are in appeal before this Court against the award of the learned court below passed under Section 18 of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894 (for short, `the Act') seeking further enhancement of compensation for the acquired land whereas the State of Punjab is seeking reduction thereof. Briefly, the facts of the case are that the State of Punjab vide notification dated 13.11.1992 issued under Section 4 of the Act, acquired 550.03 acres of land situated within the revenue estates of villages Lalru, Jalalpur, Lehli and Hassanpur, Tehsil Rajpura, District Patiala, for setting up of Industrial Focal Point at Lalru. The Land Acquisition Collector assessed the market value of the acquired land of different villages at different rates. Aggrieved against the same, the landowners filed objections under Section 18 of the Act which were referred to the learned Additional District Judge, Patiala, who keeping in view the material placed on record by the parties, determined the market value of the acquired land @ ` 1,50,000/-per acre for all villages. It is this award which is impugned in the present set of appeals by both the parties. Learned counsel for the State fairly submitted that the issues raised in the present set of appeals are squarely covered by the judgment of this Court in RFA No. 1072 of 1999- Om Parkash and another vs State of Punjab and others, decided on 3.5.2006. Accordingly for the reasons recorded in Om Parkash's case (supra), the appeals are disposed of in terms thereof. 12.10.2010 (Rajesh Bindal) vs. Judge
