THIS LAND ACQUISITION APPEAL HAVING BEEN FINALLY HEARD ON 30/7/2009, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: PIUS C.KURIAKOSE & P.Q.BARKATH ALI, JJ. ------------------------ L.A.A.No.188 OF 2009 ------------------------ Dated this the 30th day of July, 2009 JUDGMENT Pius C.Kuriakose, J. It is seen from the impugned judgment that it is relying on the judgment in L.A.R. No.125/2001 that enhancement was granted by the reference court. In fact the judgment in L.A.R. No.125/2001 was a relevant judgment, which has now been approved by this court in L.A.A. No.1488/2007. We notice that it is a higher rate than the rate granted in L.A.R. 125/2001, which has been granted in this case. But the court below was justified in doing so and since there was four years time gap between two notifications under Section 4(1), we therefore have no difficulty to approve this judgment also. The appeal will stand dismissed. PIUS C.KURIAKOSE,JUDGE P.Q.BARKATH ALI, JUDGE dpk
