Respondents Coram: Hon'ble Mr. Justice Rajesh Bindal Present: Mr. J. P. Dhull, and Mr. Vineet Chaudhary, Advocates, for the landowners. Rajesh Bindal J. This order shall dispose of RFA Nos. 118, 119, 230 and 269 of 2012, as common questions of law and facts are involved therein. The landowners are seeking enhancement of compensation for the acquired land. Briefly, the facts of the case are that vide notification dated 19.7.2002, issued under Section 4 of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894 (for short, `the Act'), State of Haryana sought to acquire land, situated in villages Kole Khan and Khurana, Tehsil and District Kaithal, for residential and commercial Sector 18, Kaithal. The same was followed by notification dated 17.7.2003, issued under Section 6 of the Act. The Land Acquisition Collector (for short, `the Collector'), vide award dated 16.7.2005, assessed the market value of the acquired land @ ` 5,00,000/- per acre. Dissatisfied with the award of the Collector, the land owner filed objections. On reference, the learned court below, vide different awards, assessed the market value of the acquired land @ ` 300/- per square yard. It is this award which is impugned by the landowners before this court. Learned counsel for the landowners very fairly submitted that in view of the judgment of this Court in Smt. Maya and others vs State of RFA No. 118 of 2012 (2) Haryana and others decided on 23.1.2012, the claim made in the present set of appeals for enhancement of compensation does not survive. Accordingly, for the detailed reasons recorded in Smt. Maya's case (supra), the present appeals are dismissed. Consequently, the accompanying applications are also dismissed. 30.5.2012 (Rajesh Bindal) vs. Judge
