Petitioners were also informed that the land was already acquired, compensation was paid to fifth respondent and that after seventeen years of acquisition, the respondents cannot take any action. Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that when the notification under Section 4(1) of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894 (for short, the Act) was published, name of father of the petitioners along with sixth respondent was shown. However, compensation was not paid due to fraud played by respondents 5 and 6. Even if there is any substance in the submission made by the learned counsel for the petitioners respondent No.3 could not have decided the same especially when the Land Acquisition Officer after passing awarding and paying compensation has no power to review his/her award passed under Section 11 of the Act. The Writ Petition is misconceived and is accordingly dismissed. _______________ (V.V.S.RAO, J) 13.9.2005 bnr
