JUDGMENT Radhakrishnan,J. The appeal was preferred seeking a writ of certiorari calling for the records leading to the land acquisitions proceedings initiated by the respondents against the petitioner. The acquisition was for the purpose of construction of a park. The area where the proposed establishment of park is a residential area as per the detailed town planning scheme. It is also stated that the District Planning Committee and the Government have approved the Master Plan for the Calicut City and the proposed construction of the park is in tune with the Master Plan. The area proposed for acquisition is a small strip of land lying in between two roads and is not suitable for construction of any building and it is an ideal spot for constructing a park. The notification was published and an enquiry was conducted under Section 5A(1) of the Land Acquisition Act. The enquiry was completed on 18.10.2001. The land acquisition proceedings were rightly initiated. We find no WA 1107/07 -: 2 :- reason to interfere with the judgment of the learned single Judge. Writ Appeal is dismissed.
