CM No. 5242 -CI of 2011 and R.F.A. No. 4355 of 2003 (O&M) [1] IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH CM No. 5242 -CI of 2011 and R.F.A. No. 4355 of 2003 (O&M) Date of decision: 28.4.2011 Sultan and others .. Appellants v. The State of Haryana and others .. Respondents CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE RAJESH BINDAL Present: Mr. Ashish Aggarwal, Advocate for the applicants-appellants. ... Rajesh Bindal J. Prayer in the application is for withdrawal of the main appeal filed by the applicants-appellants. Notice in the application. Mr. D. D. Gupta, Additional Advocate General, Haryana and Mr. Hemant Bassi, Advocate, who are present in Court, accept notice on behalf of respondents No. 1 and 2 respectively. Learned counsel for the applicants-appellants submitted that they had filed a petition in the court below under Section 30 of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894 seeking apportionment of compensation on account of their being the proprietors of village Rai, District Sonepat. Now they do not want to proceed with the appeal and are happy in case the amount of compensation is disbursed to the Gram Panchayat. He further pointed out that C.M. No. 2818-CI of 2005 was filed by some of the applicants claiming that they were also proprietors of the village and be impleaded as appellants in case the appeal goes uncontested. He further submitted that the applicants-appellants in the present case had not filed the objections/petition before the court below in CM No. 5242 -CI of 2011 and R.F.A. No. 4355 of 2003 (O&M) [2] representative capacity on behalf of all the proprietors of the village. The objections were filed by them in their individual capacity. The applicants in CM No. 2818-CI of 2005 never claimed apportionment of compensation on account of their allegedly being the proprietors of the village. In case, they had any grievance, they could have independently contested their claim. Considering the fact that this is an appeal filed by the applicants-appellants in their individual capacity seeking apportionment of compensation with the Gram Panchayat, they are very well entitled to withdraw the same. Accordingly, the application is allowed. The main appeal is taken on Board and is dismissed as withdrawn. All other pending applications are also dismissed. (Rajesh Bindal) Judge 28.4.2011 mk
