Present: Ms.K.K.Kahlon, Advocate, for the appellant(s). **** M EHINDER S INGH S ULLAR , J.(oral) At the very outset, learned counsel for the appellant has submitted that the controversy involved in these appeals is squarely covered and are liable to be disposed of in the same terms of the order/judgment dated 23.03.2011 in R.F.A. No.1549 of 1989 titled as Union of India and others Versus Smt.Pindi Devi, passed by a Coordinate Bench of this Court (Rajesh Bindal J.), the operative part of which is, as under:- “Briefly, the facts are that super structure in question situated in the revenue estate of Village Athotarwan, Hadbast No.369, Tehsil R.F.A. No.1544 of 1989 & 8 other connected cases 3 Pathankot, District Gurdaspur was acquired vide notification dated 2.12.1977 issued under Section 4 of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894 (for short, 'the Act'). The same was followed by notification under Section 6 of the Act on 5.7.1978. The Land Acquisition Collector (for short 'the Collector') gave award pertaining to super structure. The claimant filed objections which were referred to the learned Court below for consideration, who keeping in view the material placed on record by the parties, awarded compensation of `19,690/-. It is this award which is impugned by the Union of India in the present appeal. A perusal of the paper-book shows that the amount involved in the appeal is merely `11,500/- and the acquisition having taken place more than 33 years back, I do not find any reason to interfere therein at this stage. Accordingly, the present appeal is dismissed.” In this view of the matter and after hearing the learned counsel for the appellant, going through the record with her valuable help and after considering the entire matter deeply, the instant appeals are hereby dismissed in the same terms of the order/judgment dated 23.03.2011 of this Court in Smt.Pindi Devi's case(supra).
