THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE V.ESWARAIAH AND THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE K.S. APPA RAO A.S. No.2812 OF 2001 JUDGMENT: (per THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.ESWARAIAH) Though the Appeal has already been dismissed against the respondents 2 to 4 by this Court on 15.2.2001, there cannot be two decrees in respect of the same order in the O.P. No.419 of 1986. However, we have perused the impugned order of the court below. 2. The lands of the respondents/claimants were acquired for the purpose of construction and formation of a Reservoir at Kollor and Masolga pursuant to the 4(1) notification of the Land Acquisition Act, dated 21.3.1974 and the award was passed by the Land Acquisition Officer fixing the market value at the rate of Rs.5,000/- per acre and on reference, the reference court based on Ex.B.1 under which the land was sold at the rate of Rs.2,690/- per acre, though the said transaction was rejected by the Land Acquisition Officer while fixing the compensation, the reference court has accepted the same as in respect of the very self same survey number, the land was sold and which was similarly situated and having similar value and accordingly, fixed the compensation at the rate of Rs.3,000/- per acre. Therefore, we are of the opinion that the court below rightly fixed the compensation at the rate of Rs.3,000/- per acre basing on the oral and documentary evidence adduced by the respondents/claimants. We see no merits in the appeal to interfere with the impugned order. 3. Accordingly, the Appeal Suit is dismissed. No order as to costs. _________________ V.ESWARAIAH,J __________________ K.S.
