JUSTICE R.M.DOSHIT)<\/p>\n<p>\tThese<br \/>\nApplications for review have been made by the appellant-Oil &amp;<br \/>\nNatural Gas Corporation Limited [hereinafter referred to as, \u00fdSthe<br \/>\nCorporation\u00fd\u00fd] against the common judgment and order dated<br \/>\n22nd December, 2003 passed by this Court [Coram<br \/>\n: N.G Nandi &amp; D.P Buch, JJ.} in above First Appeals<br \/>\nNo. 522 of 2000 to 544 of 2000 &amp; First Appeal No. 358 of 2001. By<br \/>\nthe judgment under review, this Court has allowed Appeals preferred<br \/>\nby the Corporation to the extent that the compensation awarded by the<br \/>\nReference Court for the acquired lands has been reduced to Rs. 54\/=<br \/>\nper sq.m. This judgment was carried in appeal before the Hon&#8217;ble<br \/>\nSupreme Court. In Special Leave to Appeal [Civil] No. 8132 of 2004<br \/>\nand other applications, the Hon&#8217;ble Supreme Court on 15th<br \/>\nOctober, 2007, made Order as under :-\n<\/p>\n<p>\u00fdSWe<br \/>\nare of the view that ends of justice would be met if the petitioner<br \/>\nherein moves the High Court by way of review because, in our view,<br \/>\nthere is an apparent mistake on the face of the record as far as the<br \/>\nnotifications are concerned. Subject to above, the Special Leave<br \/>\npetitions are disposed of.\u00fd\u00fd<\/p>\n<p>Pursuant<br \/>\nto the above order, the Corporation has taken out present<br \/>\napplications for review of the above referred judgment dated 22nd<br \/>\nDecember, 2003.\n<\/p>\n<p>At the outset, learned<br \/>\nadvocates Mr. Jani and Mr. Prajapati have questioned maintainability<br \/>\nof the present Applications. They have submitted that the relief<br \/>\ngranted by the Hon&#8217;ble Supreme Court in favour of the<br \/>\nCorporation was in respect of the lands of village-Palvasna, situated<br \/>\nnear village-Heduva Hanumatapura. The lands of village Palvasna were<br \/>\nacquired by Notification issued on 27th May, 1982,<br \/>\ntherefore, the compensation awarded in respect of the said lands<br \/>\ncannot apply mutatis mutandis in respect of the lands which<br \/>\nare the subject matter of the present proceeding.\n<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Marshal has submitted<br \/>\nthat the acquisition proceedings in question were initiated by<br \/>\nissuance of Notification under Section 4 of the Land Acquisition Act<br \/>\non 10th October, 1985. After following the required<br \/>\nprocedure, declaration made under Section 6 of the Act was published<br \/>\nin the Official Gazette on 31st July, 1986. By the said<br \/>\nNotification, several pieces of land of village Heduva Hanumantpura,<br \/>\nDistrict Mehsana have been acquired. The awards for compensation were<br \/>\nmade by the land acquisition officer on 7th  October,<br \/>\n1988. The claimants, however, sought reference. Two of the said<br \/>\nreferences No. 1742 of 1992 &amp; 2578 of 1993 were decided by the<br \/>\nlearned Assistant Judge, Mehsana by a common judgment and order dated<br \/>\n3rd September, 1997. The learned Assistant Judge was<br \/>\npleased to raise compensation to Rs. 50 per sq.m. The said award was<br \/>\nchallenged before this Court by the Corporation in First Appeals No.<br \/>\n456 of 1998 &amp;  No. 459 of 1998. Both the said appeals were<br \/>\ndismissed on 24th June, 1998 [Coram<br \/>\n: Y.B Bhatt &amp; R.P Dholakia, JJ.]. After a round of<br \/>\nlitigation, Misc. Civil Applications No. 323 of 2002 and 324 of 2002<br \/>\ntaken out by the Corporation also came to be rejected. The said<br \/>\njudgment was then challenged before the Hon&#8217;ble Supreme Court<br \/>\nin Civil Appeal  Nos. 552 &amp; 553 of 2003. The Hon&#8217;ble<br \/>\nSupreme Court, by its Order dated 24th January, 2003<br \/>\nallowed the said Appeals and reduced the amount of  compensation for<br \/>\nagricultural land from Rs. 50\/= per sq.m to Rs. 38\/= per sq.m. Mr.<br \/>\nMarshal has submitted that the said order made by the Hon&#8217;ble<br \/>\nSupreme Court was in respect of the lands identically situated as the<br \/>\nlands which are the subject matter in the present proceeding. The<br \/>\nHon&#8217;ble Division Bench of this Court, therefore, ought to have<br \/>\nreduced the compensation for agricultural lands to Rs. 38\/= per sq.m.<br \/>\nHowever, the learned Judges have erred in not following the binding<br \/>\norder of the Hon&#8217;ble Supreme Court and instead, has awarded<br \/>\ncompensation @ Rs. 54\/= per sq.m., after elaborate process of<br \/>\ndetermination of the market price of the lands.\n<\/p>\n<p>The aforesaid facts are<br \/>\ngathered from the materials on record and are not in dispute. We do<br \/>\nagree with Mr. Marshal that these facts call for a review.\n<\/p>\n<p>\tFor<br \/>\nthe aforesaid reasons, these Applications are allowed. The judgment<br \/>\nand award dated 22nd December, 2003 passed  by this Court<br \/>\n[Coram<br \/>\n: N.G Nandi &amp; D.P Buch, JJ.] in First Appeals No.<br \/>\n522 of 2000 to 544 of 2000 and First Appeal No. 358 of 2001 is<br \/>\nrecalled. The Appeals are restored.\n<\/p>\n<p>\tThis<br \/>\norder is made on condition that the Oil &amp; Natural Gas Corporation<br \/>\nLimited pays the amount of compensation to the concerned claimants @<br \/>\nRs. 38\/= per sq.m. Mr. Marshal has submitted that the<br \/>\napplicant-Corporation has already deposited the amount of<br \/>\ncompensation calculated @ Rs. 38\/= per sq.m. alongwith cost and<br \/>\ninterest.\n<\/p>\n<p>\tIt<br \/>\nis observed that the concerned applicants will be at liberty to<br \/>\nwithdraw the amount of compensation deposited in the Reference Court.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t In<br \/>\nview of the above directions, Civil Applications No.3102 of 2008 to<br \/>\n3124 of 2008 and Civil<br \/>\nApplications No. 7664 of 2008 to 7672 of 2008 are disposed of. The<br \/>\nparties will bear their own cost.\n<\/p>\n<p>\tAppeals<br \/>\nbe posted for final hearing after receipt of record and proceedings.\n<\/p>\n<p>{Miss<br \/>\nR.M Doshit, J.}<\/p>\n<p>{Sharad<br \/>\nD.
