No.44 of 2011 ------------------------------ Dated this the 20th day of January 2011 J U D G M E N T Pius C. Kuriakose, J. We are not inclined to entertain this appeal preferred by the Government. The property was in Varappuzha Village. The purpose of acquisition was for construction of NH 17 from Varappuzha to Cheriyappilly. The acquisition was pursuant to Section 4(1) notification published on 31.3.2006. The L.A.Officer awarded land value at the rate of Rs.88,889/- per Are. The learned Addl. Sub Court, North Paravur on evaluating the evidence, refixed the same at Rs.1,89,156/- per Are. Even though apparently attractive submissions are addressed by the learned Senior Govt. Pleader, we take into consideration earlier decisions of this L.A.A. No.44 of 2011 -: 2 :- Court in respect of acquisition for the same purpose pursuant to earlier notification. Considering the decision taken by this Court, the land value refixed by the learned Sub Judge cannot be said to be unreasonable. We approve the same. Appeal is dismissed. PIUS C. KURIAKOSE, JUDGE. N.K.BALAKRISHNAN, JUDGE. Jvt
