1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE FOR RAJASTHAN AT JODHPUR -------------------------------------------------------- SPL. APPL. WRIT No. 1053 of 2007 ASHU RAM V/S STATE & ORS Mr. CHENA RAM ARYA for Mr. DRON KAUSHIK, for the appellant / petitioner Date of Order : 7.1.2008 HON'BLE SHRI N P GUPTA,J. HON'BLE SHRI MOHAMMAD RAFIQ,J. ORDER ----- Heard learned counsel for the appellant, perused the impugned order of the learned Single Judge. The learned Single Judge has dismissed the writ petition mainly on the ground of delay of 36 years from the date of publication of Section 4 Notification and of 33 years from the date of publication of Section 6 Notification, and has not placed on record the relevant certified copies from the land acquisition file. In our view, the reasonings given by the learned Single Judge are perfectly correct. Even according to the document produced by the petitioner, it is clear that last letter of Land Acquisition Officer to Tehsildar is said to be dated 27.4.81, and then the petitioner's application is dated 23.7.97. Thus, even during this interregnum period, there 2 is a long silence of more than 16 years. Thus, the appeal has no force and is dismissed. ( MOHAMMAD RAFIQ ),J. ( N P GUPTA ),J. /tarun/
