petitioners and also taking into account the distance of the property of the petitioners and the property at Item No.9 in Ext.P2 and to adopt the value at Item No.9, to the extent it can be accommodated.

(iii). Needless to say that the petitioners would also be entitled for interest in accordance with law."
