● The award has been passed by the Land Acquisition Officer on 22-07- 2020. If at all the petitioners can have a grievance it might relate to the adequacy of the compensation and nothing more. For this they will have to move the appellate authority under Section 64 of the Right to Fair Compensation Act, by preferring an application to the Collector. When there is an effective alternative remedy available, it is impermissible for the petitioners to camouflage their real intent to challenge a concluded ac- quisition proceedings. Reliance was placed on the decision in Genpact India (P) Ltd., Vs Deputy Commissioner of Income Tax & another [(2019) SCC Online SC 1500 : 2019(16) Scale 667]. That apart, the ac- quisition cannot now be challenged since awards have been passed, and petitioners have an effective alternative remedy under Sec.64 of RFCT- LARR Act. Reliance was placed on the ratio in Municipal Council, Ahmednagar Vs Shah Hyder Baig [AIR 2000 SC 671].
