Kurian Joseph, J.

These are appeals filed by the State aggrieved by the

fixation of land value by the reference court. Acquisition is for

the purpose of Muvattupuzha Valley Irrigation Project. In these

cases, the reference court has fixed the land value at the rate of

more than 60% over the value fixed by the Land Acquisition

Officer. In similar case, in L.A.A. No. 34/2003, this Court has

sustained such fixation. Being similarly situated and connected

matters, these appeals are dismissed.
