This is a special civil application of the year 1983 and no steps have been taken whatsoever by the petitioner to get the notice served on the respondent. 2. The counsel for the petitioner today is not in a position to give out the correct address of respondent. Otherwise also, I have gone through the award which has been passed by the Claims Commissioner, Western Railway, Vadodara. The respondent has been awarded just and reasonable compensation. In such matters, the Union of India should not have filed writ petition, which is nothing but waste of time and public fund. The counsel for the petitioner is unable to point out any error apparent on the face of the order of the Claims Commissioner, nor is he able to make out any perversity in the finding. 3. In the result the special civil application fails and the same is dismissed. Rule discharged. ...... csm
