THESE PETITIONS, COMING ON FOR FURTHER HEARING, THIS
DAY, THE COURT MADE THE FOLLOWING:
ORDER
The petitions involved in this matter share similar issues and have been collectively heard and adjudicated upon by way of a common order.
2. In these petitions, the challenge is to the order of the Special 2nd Additional District and Sessions Judge, Chitradurga, concerning appeals filed under Section 16(3) of the Indian Telegraphic Act, 1885, by which the petitioner was directed to pay compensation towards diminutive value.
3. Pramod Nair, learned senior counsel representing the petitioner's counsel contends that the compensation amount of Rs.2,00,000/- per acre, inclusive of diminution value, was already settled by the learned District Magistrate under Section 13(D) of the

Indian Telegraphic Act. Therefore, the subsequent award by the learned Judge, directing additional compensation towards diminution value, amounts to double compensation and is legally unsustainable.
4. On the contrary, counsel for the respondents, representing the landowners, argues that the order issued by the District Magistrate under Section 10(d) of the Indian Telegraphic Act awarded compensation solely for damages to the land, standing trees, and crops, without including diminution value. Hence, according to them, the learned Judge's decision to award compensation for diminution value is justified and does not warrant interference.
5. After considering the arguments presented by both sides, it is noted that the lands in question were utilized for laying overhead transmission lines, and the District Magistrate's order explicitly detailed compensation for the damages incurred during this process, but did not include diminution value.
6. The petitioners failed to provide any documentation supporting their claim that the comprehensive compensation of Rs.2,00,000/- per acre already included diminution value, apart from asserting that separate compensation for diminution value was disbursed to the respective landowners.
7. The learned District Judge subsequently awarded diminution value compensation at 15% of the market value.

However, a Division Bench of this Court has held that landowners are entitled to a minimum of 30% diminution value compensation when they fail to produce compelling evidence justifying higher compensation.
8. I find no legal illegality in the impugned order issued by the learned District Judge. Consequently, the writ petitions are dismissed.
