Hindustan Zinc Ltd. vs Gokal And Anr. on 6 August, 2001
The judgment of Union of India v. Sulochana Devi and Ors. (supra), also, only provides that the claimants are entitled for solatium and interest as per Section 23 but in those cases the question under Sub-section (2) of Section 11 was not involved, whereas in the cases of State of Gujarat v. Daya Shamaji Bhai (supra) and Ishwarlal Premchand Shah and Ors. v. State of Gujarat (supra), the award of interest and solatium in the matter of award under Section 11(2) and Sub-section (1-A) of Section 23 was specifically the point in controversy and when Hon'ble the Apex Court has decided that in case the solatium, interest and additional amount are not included in the agreement then the Land Acquisition Officer is not required to award above amount and claimants are not entitled for that.
