In the High Court of Punjab & Haryana at Chandigarh RFA No. 674 of 1992 (O&M) Ram Chander ..... Appellant vs State of Haryana and another ..... Respondents Coram: Hon'ble Mr. Justice Rajesh Bindal Present: Mr. Akshay Jain, Advocate, for the appellant. Mr. Ashish Gupta, Assistant Advocate General, Haryana. Rajesh Bindal J. This is an appeal against the award of the learned court below passed under Section 18 of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894 (for short, 'the Act') seeking apportionment of compensation for the acquired land. Briefly, the facts of the case are that the State vide notification issued under Section 4 of the Act, acquired the land situated within the revenue estate of Village Gangatehri, Tehsil Safidon, District Jind, for construction of a drain. The Land Acquisition Collector assessed the fair value of different kinds of land at different rates. Dissatisfied with the award of the Collector, the landowners filed objections. On reference under Sections 18 and 30 of the Act, the learned court below dismissed the claim of the appellant. It is this award which is impugned in the present appeal. A perusal of the impugned award shows that Gram Panchayat was the owner of the land in question and the appellant was recorded as gair marusi bina lagan bai wajah sabka hissedari. No documentary evidence has been placed on record by the appellant before the court below or before this court in order to prove his tenancy over the land in question. As there was no evidence led by the appellant in support of his claim, the court below has not committed any illegality in dismissing the reference. Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed. 13.8.2010 (Rajesh Bindal) vs. Judge
