IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH C.W.P.No.9929 of 2010 Date of Decision:- 03.12.2010 Jagdish Chand ....Petitioner(s) vs. State of Punjab & others ....Respondent(s) *** CORAM:- HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE JASBIR SINGH HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE AUGUSTINE GEORGE MASIH *** Present:- Mr.G.S.Jagpal, Advocate, for the petitioner. Mr.Manohar Lall, Addl.A.G., Punjab, for the respondents. *** Jasbir Singh, J. (Oral) Petitioner claims that he is owner of the land measuring 2 Bighas and 5 Biswas which was purchased by his father on 9.9.1965. It is his case that at no point of time, compensation of the land was paid to the petitioner/his predecessor in interest by the respondents whereas possession was taken from him forcibly on 4.10.2000. Be that as it may, it is coming out from the written statement that the land was acquired way-back in the year 1965. Award was passed on 9.3.1965. If that is so, the petitioner who has purchased the land after passing of the Award, possibly cannot raise any objection with regard to disbursement of compensation. In the written statement, it is averred that the compensation was disbursed to the land owner whose name figured as owner in the revenue record at that time. It is also clear from the record that the petitioner went to the Human Rights Commission. At his C.W.P.No.9929 of 2010 -2- instance, an enquiry was conducted and after enquiry, it transpired that the compensation amount had already been paid to one Sher Singh son of Ranjan Singh, who is not a party in this case. If that is so, petitioner, if has any legal grievance, may raise it against that person before a proper Forum. No case is made out for interference by this Court. Dismissed.
