HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE ASHUTOSH J. SHASTRI

ORAL JUDGMENT
(PER : HONOURABLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE MR. JUSTICE ARAVIND KUMAR)
1. Petitioner is seeking for a direction to the respondents to
act as per the assurance given under communication dated
21.8.2018 (Annexure-C) whereunder it is stated that on
completion of the work, the shed that was then existing near
Pillar No.85 of Metro Rail Project, admeasuring 7.7 metres X 4.2
metres would be restored.
2. We have heard the arguments of Mr. Robin Prasad,
learned advocate appearing for the petitioner, Ms. Hetal Patel,
learned AGP appearing for respondent Nos.1 and 2 as well as
C/SCA/9992/2022 JUDGMENT DATED: 21/12/2022
Mr. Anuj Trivedi, learned advocate appearing for respondent
No.3. Perused the records.
3. Though several grounds have been urged and voluminous
pleadings have been laid before this Court, suffice to state that
this petition is liable to be dismissed on the short ground that
land which was originally belonging to the petitioner having
since been acquired by the Gujarat Metro Rail Corporation has
resulted in quantification of the compensation to the extent of
Rs.1,75,70,393/- and also culminating in payment in the month
of October 2019 and as such any assurance given under the
aforesaid communication dated 21.8.2018 would get eclipsed by
virtue of the compensation having been received which is
undisputedly for the structure value for shed and workshop
which is also quantified at Rs.30,62,716/-. In that view of the
matter, we are of the considered view that entertaining of this
petition that too by entering into the zone of disputed questions
of facts would not arise. Hence, petition stands dismissed.
