       Dated this the 23rd day of July, 2010

                       ORDER

Pius C. Kuriakose, J

The state in the R.P. seeks review of the

judgment to the extent of correcting the word

“cent” as “Are”. It is urged that under the

judgment this Court reduced the rates awarded by

the Reference Court and re-fixed the value from

Rs.4942/- to Rs.3237/- per Are, but by mistake it

is stated that the re-fixed value is Rs.3237/- per

cent.

2. It is also submitted that the same mistake

occurred in the case of lands included in another

category where the Reference Court has fixed

R. P. No.1195 of 2009
-2-

value at the rate of Rs.9854/- per Are and this

Court actually reduced the value to Rs.4856/- per

Are. But by mistake instead of “Are” the word

“cent” is used.

3. We have considered the submissions of

Smt.Latha T. Thankappan, the learned senior

Government Pleader and Sri.Kuriachan, the

learned counsel for the first respondent.

Smt.Latha argued on the basis of the grounds of

review. Sri.Mohan C. Menon, the learned counsel

for the second respondent would support all the

submissions of Smt.Latha. He drew our attention

to the counter affidavit filed by the second

respondent and submitted that by seeking review

the Government is only seeking correction of

R. P. No.1195 of 2009
-3-

mistake which has crept into the judgment

inadvertently. Sri.K.J.Kuriachan, the learned

counsel for the claimants/respondents drew our

attention to the full text of the impugned

judgment. According to him, on going through the

judgment it will be seen that this Court has

consciously re-fixed the value at Rs.3237/- per

cent itself.

4. Having given our anxious consideration to

the rival submissions and having scanned the

impugned judgment, we are convinced that this

Court has actually interfered with the

enhancement granted by the Reference Court and

reduced the same. In order that the rates granted

are inconformity with the decision actually taken

R. P. No.1195 of 2009
-4-

by this Court, it is necessary that the review is

allowed and the application for correction filed by

the claimants are dismissed. Hence, we allow the

review as prayed for and dismiss the applications

for correction filed by the claimants separately.
