Kuriakose, J Even though several attractive grounds have been raised in this appeal and Smt.Thushara James, the learned counsel for the Requisitioning Authority addressed arguments on the basis of all those grounds, having regard to the decision taken by this Court in LAA.875/07 which pertains to a higher category of land, we feel that the increase given under the impugned judgment which is actually on a proportionate basis can also be approved. This appeal is dismissed, however, without any order as to costs. PIUS C. KURIAKOSE JUDGE C. K. ABDUL REHIM JUDGE kns/-
