Manjit Singh And Others vs State Of Haryana on 18 November, 2008<\/div>\n
RFA No.4500 of 2001                    1\n\nIn the Punjab and Haryana High Court,at Chandigarh.\n\n\n             RFA No.4500 of 2001\n             Decided on November 18,2008.\n\n\nManjit Singh and others                            --Appellants\n\n             vs.\n\nState of Haryana                                   -- Respondent\n\n\n\nPresent:     Mr.B.S.Guliani,Advocate, for the appellants\n\n             Mr.H.S.Hooda,A.G,Haryana, with\n             Mr.Rajiv Kawatra,Sr.D.A.G,Haryana,for the respondents.\n\n\nRakesh Kumar Jain,J:\n\n\n\n             This judgment shall dispose       of 12 Regular First Appeals\n\nbearing RFA Nos. 4500 to 4511 of 2001, as common questions of law and\n\nfact are involved therein.\n\n             Tersely, the land measuring 6 kanals 18 marla was notified\n\nunder Section 4 of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894 (for short, 'the Act')\n\npublished on 08.7.1986 and 52 kanals 12 marlas was notified under Section\n\n4 of the Act, published in the Govt. Gazette on 07.2.1987,situated in village\n\nKullarpur, Hadbast No. 309, Tehsil Naraingarh, District Ambala, followed\n\nby a    notification of      declaration issued under Section 6 of the Act,\n\npublished in the Govt. Gazettes dated 16.2.1987 and 14.3.1987, for a\n\npublic purpose, namely for the construction of link road from village\n\nKullarpur to village Ferozepur.\n\n             The Land Acquisition Collector,P.W.D. (B&R),Branch Ambala\n\nCantt,(for short, the Collector) announced       his award    No.58    dated\n RFA No.4500 of 2001                                  2\n\n11.11.1987 for the year 1987-88, classifying the acquired land into four\n\ncategories and awarded compensation for Chahi @ Rs.32,320\/- per acre;\n\nBarani @ Rs.21,547\/- per acre; Banjar @ Rs.10,774\/- and Gair Mumkin @\n\nRs.5,387\/- per acre.\n\n                 The landowners \/claimants remained unsatisfied with the award\n\nof the Collector ,therefore, they preferred objections under Section 18 of\n\nthe Act, in which it was averred that market value of the acquired land at\n\nthe time of issuance of notification under Section 4 of the Act, was not less\n\nthan Rs.1,50,000\/- per acre. It was further asserted that the potential value\n\nof the acquired land has not been taken into consideration by the Collector\n\nas it is situated near the abadi of the village and had great potential for\n\nbeing used for residential purposes.\n\n                 The claim of the landowners\/claimants was contested by the\n\nState of Haryana-respondent.                   It was alleged that just                 and adequate\n\ncompensation has already been granted to the landowners.\n\n                 The claimants\/landowners examined two witnesses, namely\n\nKaram Singh as PW-1 and Surjit Singh Halqa Patwari as PW-2. Surjit Singh\n\n(PW2) has proved site plans Ex.P1, Ex. P-2 and Ex P-4 showing location\n\nof certain khasra numbers. Karam Singh (PW1) deposed that 13 marlas of\n\nland belonging to him was acquired. According to him, value of the\n\nacquired land at the time of acquisition was Rs. 1,50,000\/- per acre as it\n\nwas situated near the village. On the other hand, State of Haryana examined\n\nDev Dutt as RW-1, who deposed that the acquired land was purely\n\nagricultural and it's market value was Rs.31,000\/- per acre. Besides oral\n\nevidence, the following sale deeds were also produced:-\n\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n<\/pre>\n

            While appreciating the        sale deeds brought on record, the<\/p>\n
learned Reference Court has held that so far as the sale deeds Exs.PL and<\/p>\n
PN are concerned, these are post notification sale deeds and cannot be<\/p>\n
taken into consideration. The sale deeds Exs. P-3, PX and PY, were not<\/p>\n
relied upon on the ground that they pertain to small pieces of land. Sale<\/p>\n
deeds tendered by the learned State Counsel Exs. R-1 and R-2 were also<\/p>\n
ignored on the ground that if the same are read in conjunction with copy of<\/p>\n
jamabandi Ex.PC, they would reveal that the vendors were not cultivators<\/p>\n
of the land and the same was under cultivation by the tenants. Thus, it was<\/p>\n
observed by the learned Reference Court that        it is a matter of common<\/p>\n
knowledge that the land under cultivation of a tenant often does not carry<\/p>\n
optimum market value        because of the fact that the vendee in such<\/p>\n
transaction only gets constructive possession whereas actual possession<\/p>\n
remains with the tenant who enjoys the real fruits of the land.<\/p>\n
            After discussing the documentary evidence on record, the<\/p>\n
learned Reference Court observed that there is ample evidence on record<\/p>\n
proving that the acquired land was located near the village abadi and as<\/p>\n
such had acquired potential for being used for residential purposes. It was<\/p>\n
also observed that this aspect of the       matter has been ignored by the
\n RFA No.4500 of 2001                  4<\/span><\/p>\n
Collector keeping in view the increasing trend in the value of small pieces<\/p>\n
of land as manifested by the sale deeds Exs. PX,P-Y and PZ, the Reference<\/p>\n
Court granted 45% extra amount comprising 25% for closeness to village<\/p>\n
abadi and 20% due to closeness to Naraingarh town and the market value<\/p>\n
of the acquired land was assessed @ Rs. 46,875\/- per acre.<\/p>\n
             Mr.B.S.Guliani, learned counsel for the appellants contended<\/p>\n
that the learned Reference Court has erred in appreciating the evidence<\/p>\n
insofar as sale deeds Ex.P-3 and P-Y are concerned as the same are dated<\/p>\n
25.8.1986 pertaining to village Kullarpur itself where 10 marlas of land<\/p>\n
has been sold for Rs.11,000\/- which comes to Rs. 1,76,000\/- per acre.<\/p>\n
Learned counsel further argued that the total acquired land is 52 kanals 12<\/p>\n
marlas, which is not such a big chunk of land for which the above sale<\/p>\n
deed cannot be set up as an example. Learned counsel for the appellants<\/p>\n
thus prayed that the appellants should be awarded the compensation @<\/p>\n
Rs.1,76,000\/- per acres on the basis of sale deeds Exs. P-3 and P-Y as on<\/p>\n
the date when notification under Section 4 of the Act, was issued.<\/p>\n
             As against this, Mr.H.S.Hooda, learned A.G.Haryana, assisted<\/p>\n
by Mr.Rajiv Kawatra, learned Sr. D.A.G,Haryana, has vehemently argued<\/p>\n
that the learned Reference Court has also erred in not appreciating the<\/p>\n
true import of sale deeds Exs. R-1 and R-2 pertaining to the same village .<\/p>\n
It is submitted by him that sale deed Ex. R-1 is dated 31.12.1985 vide<\/p>\n
which 20 kanals 12 marlas of land was sold for Rs. 38,625\/- which comes<\/p>\n
to Rs.15,000\/- per acre. Similarly, sale deed Ex.R-2 is dated 31.12.1985<\/p>\n
vide which    23 kanals 4 marlas of land was sold for Rs.43,500\/- which<\/p>\n
comes to Rs.15,000\/- per acre.     Learned counsel     submitted that   the<\/p>\n
compensation should have been awarded on the basis of these two sale
\n RFA No.4500 of 2001                   5<\/span><\/p>\n
deeds but these facts have been ignored by the learned Reference Court on<\/p>\n
the ground that the land in these sale deeds was cultivated by the tenants,<\/p>\n
therefore, the same does not carry optimum market value because in that<\/p>\n
transaction, the vendee only would get constructive possession and the<\/p>\n
actual possession remains with the tenants.\n<\/p>\n
             It is further submitted by the State Counsel that the sale<\/p>\n
deeds Ex.P-3 and PY pertain to small pieces of land of 10 marlas each,<\/p>\n
which cannot be set up as an example vis-a-vis the acquired land measuring<\/p>\n
52 kanals12 marlas and in case, this Court relies upon these sale deeds<\/p>\n
Exs. P-3 and PY, then appropriate cut of 50% should be applied              in<\/p>\n
respect of these sale deed.\n<\/p>\n
             I have heard learned counsel for the parties and have perused<\/p>\n
the record with their assistance and have given my thoughtful consideration<\/p>\n
to their rival contentions.\n<\/p>\n
              Insofar as the sale deeds   Exs. R-1 and R-2 are concerned,<\/p>\n
these have to be ignored though on different pretext because these sale<\/p>\n
deeds carry the value of Rs.15,000\/- per acre which is less than the award<\/p>\n
of the Collector who has awarded Rs.32,320\/- per acre for Chahi land,<\/p>\n
Rs.21,547\/- per acre for Barani.\n<\/p>\n
             Now coming to sale deeds Ex. P-3 and PY, it is admitted that<\/p>\n
these sale deeds pertain to the same village and are prior to the issuance of<\/p>\n
notification under Section 4 of the Act. It is also admitted that the amount<\/p>\n
of Rs. 1,76,000\/- per acre is determined out of these sale deeds.<\/p>\n
             Now coming to the point as to what appropriate cut should<\/p>\n
be applied in respect of these two sale deeds.\n<\/p>\n
             I do not agree with the contention of the learned counsel for the
\n RFA No.4500 of 2001                   6<\/span><\/p>\n
respondents-State that in such a case, cut of 50% should be applied. I<\/p>\n
am of the view that it would be just and expedient to apply a cut of 30%<\/p>\n
for the value of the two sale deeds       i.e. Ex.P-3 and PY which comes to<\/p>\n
Rs.1,23,200\/- per acre.       Thus, award of the learned Addl. District<\/p>\n
Judge,Ambala, dated 23.10.2000, is set aside and the claimants\/landowners<\/p>\n
are held entitled to the amount of Rs.1,23,200\/- per acre instead of Rs.<\/p>\n
46,875\/- per acre.\n<\/p>\n
             In   view   of   the   above,    the   appeals   filed   by   the<\/p>\n
claimants\/landowners are allowed and they are held entitled to the amount<\/p>\n
of Rs.1,23,200\/- per acre instead of Rs. 46,875\/- per acre with all statutory<\/p>\n
benefits in terms of the provisions of amended Act along-with costs of the<\/p>\n
petitions.\n<\/p>\n
