COMMON JUDGMENT:
(Per Hon'ble Sri Justice Abhinand Kumar Shavili)
When the matters are taken up for hearing, learned
counsel appearing for the appellants had informed that the issue
involved in these appeals are squarely covered by the judgment
dated 27.01.2025 passed by this Court in LAAS No.56 of 2024.
This Court disposed of the said appeal by following the
judgment dated 15.09.2022 passed by another Division Bench in
LAAS No.4 of 2016, wherein a decision was taken by the
Division Bench that G.O.Ms.No.234, dated 15.10.1993 should
be applicable to all the irrigation projects and the Division
Bench has enhanced the compensation by two more times (1+2)
than the value fixed by the Land Acquisition Officer with all
other consequential benefits as stipulated under the amended
Act, and also the common judgment dated 27.09.2022 passed in
LAAS No.2 of 2016 and batch.
Learned counsel appearing for the appellants had further
contended that aggrieved by the very same direction given in
other similar batch of appeals i.e., LAAS No.125 of 2015 &
batch, the Special Deputy Collector carried the matter to the
Apex Court by filing SLP (Civil) No.28925 of 2024 and the
Apex Court confirmed the same vide order dated 17.09.2024 and
therefore, the present appeals are liable to be disposed of in
terms of the judgment dated 27.01.2025 in LAAS No.56 of 2024
and also the common judgment dated 27.09.2022 passed in
LAAS No.2 of 2016 and batch.
Learned Government Pleader appearing for the
respondent does not dispute the said fact.
Having considered the said submissions, all the appeals
are disposed of in terms of the judgment dated 15.09.2022 in
LAAS No.4 of 2016 and also the common judgment dated
27.09.2022 passed in LAAS No.2 of 2016 and batch. The
appellants are entitled to enhancement of market value of the
subject land by two more times (1+2) than the value fixed by the
Land Acquisition Officer with all consequential and statutory
benefits. However, it is made clear that the appellants would not
be entitled for interest for the delayed period in preferring the
appeals.
Miscellaneous petitions, if any, pending shall stand closed.
