Learned Government Pleader for Appeals fairly conceded that apart from the land to an extent of Ac.31.40 cents covered by the present O.P., some other lands which are subject-matter of O.P.Nos.313 and 314 of 1987 were also acquired and some of the claimants in this O.P. are joint pattaders of the lands acquired in those O.Ps. In the said O.Ps., the Land Acquisition Officer passed an award fixing the market value of the acquired land at Rs.17,000/- per acre against which, on reference being made, the reference Court fixed the market value at Rs.32,000/- per acre. Further, the appeals preferred by the Land Acquisition Officer against O.P.Nos.313 and 314 of 1987 in A.S.Nos.1507 and 680 of 2000 respectively, were dismissed by this Court on 17.10.2008 confirming the fixation of the market value made by the reference Court. In that view of the matter, this appeal is liable to be dismissed in terms of judgment of this Court made in A.S.Nos.1507 and 680 of 2000, dated 17.10.2008. Following the judgment of this Court made in A.S.Nos.1507 and 680 of 2000, dated 17.10.2008 and for the reasons mentioned thereunder, this appeal is dismissed. No order as to costs. ________________ A. GOPAL REDDY, J. __________________ APRIL 23, 2010 G.V. SEETHAPATHY, J. Tsr.
