1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY BENCH AT AURANGABAD FIRST APPEAL NO. 1062 OF 2010 The State of Maharashtra and others .. Appellants Versus Bhagirathibai Namdeo Reddy .. Respondent Shri P. P. More, A.G.P. for Appellant/State. Shri S. V. Chandole, Advocate h/f Shri V. G. Sakolkar, Advocate for the Respondent. CORAM : S. V. GANGAPURWALA, J. DATE : 31ST AUGUST, 2010. PER COURT : . The State challenges the award passed by the Reference Court thereby enhancing the compensation amount. The Reference Court had awarded the compensation to the claimants at the rate of Rs. 40,000/- per acre, whereas the Special Land Acquisition Officer had awarded the compensation to the claimant at the rate of Rs. 40,825 per Hector for Group - I lands and at the rate of Rs. 48,875/- for Group - II lands. In the present matter, the amount of enhanced compensation comes to about Rs. 2 9,800/-. 2. The Reference Court has taken into consideration the situation of the property and the crops that were taken by the claimant. So also the sale instances of the lands have been considered. Moreover, the amount enhanced is not much as far as present matter is concerned. In the light of the same, I do not find any reason to interfere with the findings of the Reference Court. The first appeal is dismissed, however, with no order as to costs. [ S. V. GANGAPURWALA, J.] bsb/August 10
