Rajat Hirabhai Motibhai And Ors. vs Deputy Collector, Land Acquisition And ... on 14 November, 1984

Further in Rajjan Hirabhai Motibhai & Ors Vs Deputy Collector, Land Acquisition and Rehabilitation, Panam project, Godhra and Ors AIR 11 1995 Gujrat 170, it was held by the Hon'ble High Court of Gujarat that Collector has not merely to intimate parties about passing of award but he has to communicate essential contents of award, if not copy of award. The counsel for the respondents have not led any evidence on record that the essential contents of the award were communicated and the petitioners had constructive or actual knowledge of the award at the time of announcement of the award by the LAC and the reference petition is barred by limitation. Therefore, I hold that the reference petition has been filed within the period of limitation. 13 Now, I shall decide the issue nos.1 & 2. Both the issues are inter­connected and I shall decide both the issues together. The onus to prove these issues is upon the petitioners and the respondents. The petitioners have claimed for enhancement in compensation of the land in question on the aforesaid grounds mentioned in the reference petition which are not repeated herein for the sake of brevity. It has been held in several judgments of the Hon'ble Supreme Court as well as the Hon'ble High Court of Delhi that while assessing the market value of the land which is sought to be acquired by the government, situation, nature, potential/ user and neighbouring land, etc, is to be considered. In this context, I would prefer to rely upon the judgments of the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India as well as the Hon'ble High Court of Delhi.

In Krapa Rangiah Vs Special Deputy Collector, Land Acquisition (1982) 2 SCC 374, the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India held that the area being comparable, the situation also being the same and all the plots having been acquired under the selfsame notification for Housing Scheme it seems to us proper that the same rate of compensation should be awarded to the claimant herein as was awarded by the High Court in Appeal No.50 of 1970. The Hon'ble Supreme Court enhanced the compensation granted to the claimant by Rs. 2 per sq. yard. with consequential increase in solatium and interest. In view of the above judgments, the petitioners herein cannot be dis­entitled for enhancement in compensation of the land in question which is also situate in the same area, location and village i.e. Burari, Delhi. Therefore, my decision is also supported with the aforesaid judgments for enhancement in compensation of the acquired land in dispute in this reference. Thus, the uniform compensation for the land in question is fixed at Rs.15.70 lacs per acre i.e. the rate assessed by the LAC for category­A land and compounded increase @ 11.5% annually is also given on the compensation amount of Rs.15.70 lacs per acre fixed by this reference court of the land in question from the date i.e. 09.08.2001 till the date of acquisition of the land i.e. 18.07.2003 which roughly comes to the total enhanced compensation of Rs.19,20,568/­ per acre (total amount fixed at Rs.19,20,568/­ per acre ­ Rs.5,05,000/­ per acre assessed by the LAC = Rs.14,15,568/­ per acre enhanced) as on 16 18.07.2003. The petitioners have not led any evidence for other claims as averred in the reference petition, therefore, they are not entitled for the said claim. Sh. Praveen Kumar/ petitioner no.3 who was unmarried had expired on 27.05.2007. Vide order dt. 26.05.2008 of this reference court, Sh.Ishwar Chand, Sh.Krishan Kumar, Sh.Pramod Kumar and Sh.Subodh Kumar have been substituted as the legal heirs of Sh.Praveen Kumar, therefore, the said LRs are entitled to receive the enhanced compensation in equal shares on behalf of Sh.Praveen Kumar/ petitioner no.3. These issues are answered accordingly. RELIEF 16 In view of my findings on the above issues, the petitioners are entitled to compensation for category A land at Rs.15.70 lacs per acre and the petitioners are also entitled to compounded increase @ 11.5% annually from 09.08.2001 till the date of acquisition of the land i.e. 18.07.2003. Therefore, I fix the market value of the land bearing khasra nos.108/2 (4­16), 3 (4­16), 8 (4­16), 9 (4­16), 11/2 (2­17), 12/1 (1­04) & 12/2 (3­12) total measuring 26 bighas 17 biswas situate at village Burari, Delhi at Rs.19,20,568/­ per acre as on 18.07.2003 (i.e. total amount fixed at Rs.19,20,568/­ per acre ­ Rs.5,05,000/­ per acre assessed by the LAC = Rs.14,15,568/­ per acre enhanced) as per the statement u/sec. 19 of the LA Act acquired vide the award no.2/2005­
