This is an appeal at the instance of the State aggrieved by the fixation of land value in respect of acquisition for Municipal Bus Stand, Ottapalam. The learned Government Pleader submits that on a short ground the matter has to go back to the reference court since the requisitioning authority is not impleaded. Being a settled position, we set aside the judgment and decree in L.A.R.No.27/2001 on the file of the Sub Court, Ottapalam. There will be a direction to the reference court to implead the Ottapalam Municipality as the additional respondent and answer the reference within a period of six months from the date of receipt of a copy of the judgment.
