          Dated this the    19th day of February, 2009

                            JUDGMENT

Pius C.Kuriakose, J.

Heard both sides.

2. This appeal by the State pertains to acquisition of land

for the construction of the Chenganassery Bye Pass. Relevant

Section 4 (1) was published on 16/3/1995 and the awarding

officer granted land value at the rate of Rs.16,667/- per cent

which was enhanced by the reference court to Rs.35,000/- per

cent on the basis of evidence which consisted of Exts.A1 to A3 ,

Exts.AW1 to AW5 , Ext.C1 to C2, Exts.R1 & R2 and RW1.

2. Having gone through the impugned judgment, we feel

that the findings of the learned Subordinate Judge are founded

on evidence which is actually available on record. Moreover it is

brought to our notice that in cases covered by the very same

section 4(1) notification, the acquisition officer had awarded the

same rate and this court has approved such enhancement

granted.

L.A.A..No.1402/2005 2

For all these reasons, the appeal will stand dismissed.
