RFA No. 267 of 2000 28.10.2009 Present: Mr.M.S.Thakur, Advocate, for the appellant. Mr.J.S.Rana, Asstt. Advocate General, for respondents No.1 to 3. The present appeal is squarely covered by the decision rendered by this Court on 12.6.2007 in RFA No.265 of 1997, titled as Shyam Lal Vs. State of Himachal Pradesh. The land of the claimants herein was acquired by the very same acquisition proceedings. The claimants and other land owners had filed different applications under Section 18 of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894 (hereinafter referred to as the Act). The claimants’ application, was dismissed by the Court below in terms of the impugned order dated 8th May, 2000 in Land Reference Petition No.148/99/93 titled as Krishan Lal and another Vs. Land Acquisition Collector and others. Another application filed by claimant Shyam Lal was also dismissed vide separate order which was assailed by him in RFA No.265 of 1997, wherein this Court set aside the award passed by the District Judge and enhanced the compensation by determining the value of the land to be Rs.6000/- per biswa. The claimants thus are also entitled to the compensation at the rates already enhanced by this Court in Shyam Lal (supra) with respect to similarly situated persons whose land was acquired by the Land Acquisition Collector. As such, impugned award is modified and it is held that the claimants shall be entitled to compensation for the acquired land at the rate of Rs.6000/- per biswa. The claimants shall also be entitled to statutory compensation on the enhanced amount as already held in Shyam Lal (supra). The Registry is directed to place a copy of the judgment passed in RFA No.265/1997 on the record of this case. It is clarified that no case for enhancement has been made out by the claimants towards the house situated on the acquired land. It is further urged by the claimants that no compensation with respect to Khasra No.127 measuring ½ biswa, possession of which was also taken over, was awarded to them. The said khasra number was not finally acquired by the Government. Hence, liberty granted to the claimants to take recourse to such remedies, as are available to them in accordance with law as no amount can be awarded for the same. The appeal is partly allowed and the same is disposed of accordingly. October 28, 2009 (Sanjay Karol) (C/Rita) Judge.
