RFA No. 277 of 2011 (1) In the High Court of Punjab & Haryana at Chandigarh RFA No. 277 of 2011 (O&M) Date of decision : 21.2.2011 Haryana State Industrial Development Corporation Limited .... Appellant vs Baig Raj and others ..... Respondents Coram: Hon'ble Mr. Justice Rajesh Bindal Present: Mr. Kamal Sehgal, Advocate, for the appellant. Rajesh Bindal J. The Haryana State Industrial Development Corporation is 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 reduction of compensation awarded to the landowners for the acquired land. Briefly, the facts of the case are that the State of Haryana vide notification dated 7.3.2002 issued under Section 4 of the Act, sought to acquire land situated in revenue estate of Villages Kasan, Bas Kusla Bas Haria and Dhana for setting up of Industrial Model Township, Phase-III, Manesar, Tehsil and District Gurgaon. The Land Acquisition Collector (for short, 'the Collector') assessed the market value of the acquired land of different villages at different rates. Dissatisfied with the award of the Collector, the landowners filed objections. On reference under Section 18 of the Act, the learned court below determined the market value of the acquired land @ ` 28,15,849/- per acre. It is this award which is impugned in the present appeal. Learned counsel for the appellant fairly conceded that the claim of the appellant in the present appeal is squarely covered by the judgment of this court in RFA No. 2373 of 2010 Madan Pal vs State of Haryana and another, decided on 11.2.2011, whereby compensation payable to the landowners for the acquired land was further enhanced. RFA No. 277 of 2011 (2) Since this court in Madan Pal's case (supra) had already enhanced the compensation payable to the landowners for the acquired land, the case of the Haryana State Industrial Development Corporation for reduction does not survive. Accordingly, for the reasons recorded in Madan Pal's case (supra), the present appeal is dismissed. Consequently, the applications for condonation of delay in filing and refiling the appeal are also dismissed. 21.2.2011 (Rajesh Bindal) vs. Judge
