Respondents Coram: Hon'ble Mr. Justice Rajesh Bindal Present: None for the appellant. Mr. Yatinder Sharma, Deputy Advocate General, Punjab. Rajesh Bindal J. The landowner has filed the present appeal seeking enhancement of compensation for the acquired land. Briefly, the facts are that land measuring 26½ bighas situated in Village Alipur Arayian, Tehsil and District Patiala, was acquired vide notification dated 29.2.1981 issued under Section 4 of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894 (for short, `the Act') for setting up of Diesel Locomotive Components Workshop. It was followed by notification dated 18.5.1981 issued under Section 6 of the Act. The Land Acquisition Collector assessed compensation @ ` 2,22,794.20 paise for 26 bighas 9 biswas of chahi land. Aggrieved against the same, the land owner filed objections which were referred to the learned Additional District Judge, who keeping in view the material placed on record by the parties, awarded ` 1,67,000/- per acre as compensation for the acquired land. No one has appeared for the appellant at the time of hearing. A perusal of the impugned award shows that the learned court below had assessed the market value of the acquired land on the basis of judgment of this court in RFA No. 1210 of 1985 Mohinder Singh and others vs State of Punjab and others decided on 30.4.1987 (Ex. P-2). As the award of the learned court below is in conformity with the aforesaid judgment of this court, prima facie, no case for further enhancement is made out. However, as no one has appeared for the appellant, the present appeal is dismissed in default. 28.9.2010 (Rajesh Bindal) vs. Judge
