R.F.A. No. 2952 of 2010 (1) IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH R.F.A. No. 2952 of 2010 (O&M) Date of decision : 2.5.2011 Bijender and others .... Appellants vs State of Haryana .... Respondent Coram : Hon'ble Mr. Justice Rajesh Bindal Present:- Mr. S. K. Bhardwaj, Advocate, for the appellants. Mr. D. D. Gupta, Additional Advocate General, Haryana. RAJESH BINDAL, J The landowners have filed the present appeal seeking enhancement of compensation for the acquired land. Briefly the facts of the case are that State of Haryana vide notification dated 30.8.2000 issued under Section 4 of the Land Acqusition Act, 1894 (for short, 'the Act), sought to acquire land situated in village Kharak Ram Ji, Tehsil and District Jind, for construction of Kalwa-Kinana Drain. The same was followed by notification dated 12.1.2001 issued under Section 6 of the Act. The Land Acquisition Collector (for short, 'the Collector') awarded compensation for the acquired land @ ` 1,50,000/- per acre. Dissatisfied with the award of the Collector, the land owners filed objections. On reference under Section 18 of the Act, the learned court below assessed the market value of the acquired land @ ` 3,00,000/- per acre for nehri and chahi. It is this award which is impugned by the landowners by filing the present appeal. Learned counsel for the appellants submitted that the issue raised in the present appeal is squarely covered by judgment of this court in RFA No. 2106 of 2006- State of Haryana vs Banwari and others, decided on 2.2.2011, whereby this court while setting aside the impugned awards, remitted the cases back to the learned court below for fresh decision. R.F.A. No. 2952 of 2010 (2) Aforesaid fact is not disputed by the learned counsel for the respondents. Accordingly, for the reasons recorded in Banwari's case (supra), the present appeal is disposed of in the same terms. The parties through their counsels are directed to appear before learned District Judge, Jind on 16.5.2011. It would be appropriate if District Judge clubs the cases with the cases remitted earlier. 2.5.2011. (Rajesh Bindal) vs. Judge
