We do not find any reason to admit this appeal preferred by the government. The acquisition was for the purpose of Electronics Techno Park pursuant to a notification dated 5-4-1994. The land acquisition officer included the property in category 8 and awarded land value of Rs. 15750/- per Are. The reference court on the basis of the evidence which came on record refixed the land value at Rs. 18900/- per Are. We have noticed in L.A.A.No. 18, 93, 94 and 955 of 2008 and other cases that the reference court has granted still higher land value for properties included in category 8 by the land acquisition officer. Under the above circumstances, there is no warrant at all for interfering with the impugned judgment. The appeal will stand dismissed. PIUS.C.KURIAKOSE JUDGE P.Q.BARKATH ALI JUDGE sv.
