These appeals along with MFA Crobs. coming on for Admission this day, S.R.Krishna Kumar J., delivered the following:
JUDGMENT
These appeals and cross objections arise out of the
impugned judgments and awards dated 18.12.2018
passed in LAC No.6/2017 and connected matters whereby
the Reference Court allowed the claim of the claimants in
part and re-determined/enhanced the compensation
payable in their favour in respect of the subject lands.
2. Before the Reference Court, the appellants
were arrayed as respondents, while the Cross Objectors
were the claimants in all the matters.
3. The appeals have been preferred by the
appellants questioning the quantum of compensation
awarded by the Reference Court while the claimants have
filed Cross Objections seeking enhancement of the
compensation awarded by the Reference Court.
4. In addition to reiterating the various
contentions urged in the appeal and referring to the
material on record, learned High Court Government
Pleader for the appellants submits that it is the specific
contention of the appellants that due to bona fide reasons,
unavoidable circumstances and sufficient cause, it was not
possible for the appellants to adduce oral and documentary
evidence in support of their defence and that the
appellants could not properly defend the proceedings
before the Reference Court. It is therefore contended on
behalf of the appellants that it is necessary that one more
opportunity is provided in favour of the appellants to
contest and defend the proceedings by setting aside the
impugned judgments and awards by remitting the matter
back to the Reference Court for reconsideration afresh in
accordance with law. It is submitted that the appellants
are ready to abide by the terms and conditions to be
imposed by this Court in this regard.
5. Per contra, learned counsel for the claimants -
Cross Objectors submits that the compensation awarded
by the Reference Court is meager and inadequate and that
the same deserves to be enhanced by this Court.
6. We have given our anxious consideration to
the rival submissions and perused the material on record.
7. Though several contentions have been urged
by both sides in support of their respective claims, having
regard to the specific assertion on the part of the
appellants that if one more opportunity is provided in
favour of the appellants to contest the matter by
permitting them to adduce oral and documentary evidence
by remitting the matter back to the Reference Court,
without expressing any opinion on the merits/demerits of
the rival contentions, we deem it just and appropriate to
adopt a justice oriented approach and give one more
opportunity to the appellants to contest the proceedings by
setting aside the impugned judgments and awards and
remitting the matter back to the Reference Court for
reconsideration afresh in accordance with law.
8. In the result, we pass the following:
ORDER
i. MFA Nos.200319/2021 200206/2020, 200207/2020 200208/2020, 200209/2020, 200211/2020, 200212/2020, 200404/2020, 200405/2020, 200406/2020, 200407/2020, 200408/2020, 200409/2020, 200496/2020, 200497/2020, 200498/2020, 200499/2020, 200500/2020, 200568/2020 are hereby allowed.
