The same was followed<br \/>\nby notification dated 16.11.1998, issued under Section 6 of the Act. The Land<br \/>\nAcquisition Collector (for short, `the Collector&#8217;) assessed the market value of the<br \/>\nland at Rs. 8,28,750\/- per acre for village Nizampur Kumbra; Rs. 8,18,573\/- per<br \/>\nacre for village Kajheri, Rs. 7,71,735\/- per acre for village Nizampur Burail and<br \/>\nRs. 4,98,102\/- per acre for village Jhumroo. The land owners feeling dissatisfied<br \/>\n R.F.A. No. 3921 of 2007                                   [34]<\/p>\n<p>with the quantum of compensation awarded by the Collector, filed objections. On<br \/>\nreference under Section 18 of the Act, the learned court below assessed the market<br \/>\nvalue of the acquired land in all the villages at Rs. 13,44,000\/- per acre. For low<br \/>\nlying area as Khadan, Gair Mumkin Nadi and Choe, the learned court below<br \/>\nassessed the market value of the acquired land at Rs. 5,59,992\/- per acre.\n<\/p>\n<p>                Learned counsels for the land owners submitted that acquisition in<br \/>\nthe present case was made vide notification dated 20.8.1998. The acquisition was<br \/>\nfor the purpose of development of third phase of Chandigarh. About one year prior<br \/>\nto the acquisition in the present case, a large chunk of land pertaining to the same<br \/>\nvillages was acquired. The issue regarding determination of compensation for the<br \/>\nland earlier acquired vide notification dated 3.7.1997 was subject matter of appeal<br \/>\nbefore this Court in R.F.A. No. 727 of 2001 &#8211;<a href=\"\/doc\/117691056\/\">Narinder Singh v. Union Territory,<br \/>\nChandigarh,<\/a> decided on 4.2.2009, whereby this Court assessed the value of the<br \/>\nacquired land therein at Rs. 15,46,450\/- per acre. They further submitted that in<br \/>\nthe present case, the learned court below had assessed the value of the acquired<br \/>\nland relying upon the award pertaining to the earlier acquisition carried out vide<br \/>\nnotification dated 3.7.1997 and had granted increase @ 12% thereon, considering<br \/>\nthe fact that there was a gap of one year, one month and 17 days in the two<br \/>\nacquisitions. The submission is that this Court having further enhanced<br \/>\ncompensation payable for the acquisition carried out vide notification dated<br \/>\n3.7.1997, the land owners should be granted increased compensation for the<br \/>\npresent acquisition accordingly.\n<\/p>\n<p>                Another submission raised is that the learned court below has gone<br \/>\nwrong in not granting same compensation for the entire acquired land and holding<br \/>\nsome part of the land to be low lying as Khadan, Gair Mumkin Nadi and Choe.<br \/>\nThe compensation therefor was assessed at a lower rate which was not required to<br \/>\nbe done, as all the land owners were required to be paid the same amount of<br \/>\ncompensation. It is for the reason that after acquisition, the land was transferred<br \/>\nby Chandigarh Administration to the Cooperative Societies by specially<br \/>\nmentioning therein that Chandigarh Administration will not be liable to level the<br \/>\nuneven land. There different rate was not fixed for the low lying area. They<br \/>\nreferred to the statement of PW3- Jasbir Singh.\n<\/p>\n<p>                As far as determination of value of fruit bearing trees is concerned,<br \/>\nlearned counsel for the land owners submitted that the same having been assessed<br \/>\nstrictly in terms of the judgment of this Court while granting percentage increase<br \/>\nin proportionate to the increase        in the price index, the determination of<br \/>\ncompensation by the learned Reference Court being in conformity with the earlier<br \/>\n R.F.A. No. 3921 of 2007                                    [35]<\/p>\n<p>judgments of this Court, the claim for further increase therein does not survive. As<br \/>\nregards super structure, the submission is that the learned Reference Court has<br \/>\ngranted only the value of the super structure, as was determined by the Collector<br \/>\nwithout granting any further increase thereon, which is not in conformity with the<br \/>\njudgments of this Court, wherein it has been opined that the land owners are<br \/>\nentitled to increase @ 25% on the value of the super structure, as is assessed by the<br \/>\nCollector.\n<\/p>\n<p>                As far as assessment of Rs. 3,000\/- made by the learned court below,<br \/>\non account of some kacha room, learned counsel for the land owners submitted<br \/>\nthat they are not claiming any further increase thereon.\n<\/p>\n<p>                Learned counsels for Union Territory submitted that in the absence<br \/>\nof any independent evidence on record, the land owners should not be granted any<br \/>\nfurther increase in the value of land, as assessed by the learned Reference Court,<br \/>\nrather, even that amount deserves to be reduced. In fact, the award of the Collector<br \/>\ndeserves to be upheld and the amount awarded by the learned court below be set<br \/>\naside. It was further submitted that as far as the claim made by the land owners<br \/>\nwith regard to categorisation of land as Khadan, Gair Mumkin Nadi and Choe is<br \/>\nconcerned, the same is not tenable on the basis of the material produced on record<br \/>\nby the land owners. The quality of the land was determined in terms of the entries<br \/>\nin the revenue record, to which presumption of truth is attached. To rebut the<br \/>\nentries in the revenue records, the land owners merely produced oral evidence,<br \/>\nwhich was also self contradictory. The findings of the Collector having not been<br \/>\nrebutted successfully,      the land owners should not be granted the same<br \/>\ncompensation, as is determined for the land which is of good quality and at normal<br \/>\nlevel. The value of the land, which is part of Nadi or Choe or which are Khadans<br \/>\nis certainly less as compared to the other land. It is the price which a normal buyer<br \/>\nis ready to pay to the seller which can be claimed by the land owners as<br \/>\ncompensation. There is no question of unjust enrichment in the process. The fact<br \/>\nthat the land was ultimately sold at the same rate is not relevant for the purpose of<br \/>\nconsideration of the issue regarding valuation of the land on the date of<br \/>\nacquisition.\n<\/p>\n<p>                It was further submitted that in certain appeals, the land owners have<br \/>\nrestricted their claim for enhancement to the extent of Rs. 3,00,000\/- per acre. In<br \/>\ncase this court comes to the conclusion that the land owners are entitled to further<br \/>\nenhancement in the value of the acquired land, the entitlement of those land<br \/>\nowners should be restricted to the claim made by them.\n<\/p>\n<p>                Heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the record.\n<\/p>\n<p> R.F.A. No. 3921 of 2007                                    [36]<\/p>\n<p>                As far as the valuation of acquired land is concerned, I need not go<br \/>\ninto much details in the present set of appeals for the reason that the value of land<br \/>\npertaining to the same villages acquired for the same purpose vide notification<br \/>\ndated 3.7.1997 has already been determined by this Court in Narinder Singh&#8217;s case<br \/>\n(supra). The acquisition in the present case being one year, one month and 17 days<br \/>\nthereafter, the land owners herein can certainly be granted increase for this<br \/>\nintervening period. Even in the earlier case, the land owners were granted increase<br \/>\nfor the time gap in the notifications, while noticing the fact in detail that there had<br \/>\nbeen appreciation of value of land during the intervening period. The learned<br \/>\ncourt below granted 12% increase for this intervening period, relying upon the<br \/>\nvalue as assessed for acquisition of land vide notification dated 3.7.1997.<br \/>\nAccordingly, I also apply the same principle and on the value of the land assessed<br \/>\nfor the acquisition carried out vide notification dated 3.7.1997 in Narinder Singh&#8217;s<br \/>\ncase (supra) at Rs. 15,46,450\/- per acre, increase of 12% thereon is granted and<br \/>\nadding Rs. 1,85,574\/- therein, the value of the acquired land herein comes out to<br \/>\nRs. 17,32,024\/- per acre, which is rounded off to Rs. 17,32,000\/- per acre.<br \/>\nAccordingly, the land owners are held entitled to compensation @ Rs. 17,32,000\/-<br \/>\nper acre for the land except which is recorded as gair mumkin Nadi, Choe and<br \/>\nKhadan.\n<\/p>\n<p>                As far as different valuation of the land which is recorded as Gair<br \/>\nMumkin Nadi, Choe and Khadan in the revenue records is concerned, in my<br \/>\nopinion, sufficient evidence has not been brought on record by the land owners to<br \/>\nrebut the findings recorded by the Collector. A regular survey of the area is<br \/>\nconducted and khasra girdawaris are prepared. The Collector had recorded the<br \/>\nquality of the land on the basis of khasra girdawaris for Rabi\/Kharif, 1998. The<br \/>\nacquisition in the present case was also carried out in the year 1998. It was<br \/>\nrecorded in the khasra girdawaris that some part of the land pertaining to villages<br \/>\nNizampur Kumbra and Nizampur Burail was Gair Mumkin Nadi, Choe and<br \/>\nKhadan. Considering the deficiency in the value of this quality of land, the learned<br \/>\nReference Court assessed less amount as compensation for the acquisition thereof<br \/>\nwhich is Rs. 5,59,992\/- per acre. Learned counsel for the land owners have merely<br \/>\nreferred to the statement of PW3-Jasbir Singh to show that the entire land was of<br \/>\none level, which was quite close to the road level. However, this witness in his<br \/>\ncross-examination admitted that there may be some low lying area. In fact, he<br \/>\ndemolished his statement made in the examination-in-chief, where he stated that<br \/>\nthe entire land was of same level. The quality of land is evident from the revenue<br \/>\nrecords. There being no documentary evidence on record, the findings recorded by<br \/>\n R.F.A. No. 3921 of 2007                                   [37]<\/p>\n<p>the learned court below on the quality of land cannot be faulted with. As far as<br \/>\nvalue thereof is concerned, the learned Reference Court had determined the same<br \/>\nat Rs. 5,59,992\/- per acre, in comparison to the value of other land which was<br \/>\ndetermined at Rs. 13,44,000\/- per acre. As the value of other land has been<br \/>\nenhanced by this Court to Rs. 17,32,000\/- per acre, in the same proportion, the<br \/>\nvalue of the land which is recorded as Gair Mumkin Nadi, Choe and Khadan is<br \/>\nenhanced and the same comes out to Rs. 7,21,656\/- per acre, which is rounded off<br \/>\nto Rs. 7,21,700\/- per acre.\n<\/p>\n<p>                As far as the claim made by learned counsel for Union Territory<br \/>\nregarding restricting of claim made by the land owners in the appeals before this<br \/>\nCourt is concerned, I do not find any merit in the submissions made. <a href=\"\/doc\/159120616\/\">In Bhimasha<br \/>\nv. Special Land Acquisition Officer and<\/a> another, (2008) 10 SCC 797, the issue<br \/>\nunder consideration before Hon&#8217;ble the Supreme Court was as to whether the claim<br \/>\nfor enhancement is to be restricted to the amount claimed in the memo of appeal,<br \/>\nwhere Hon&#8217;ble the Supreme Court opined that the appellant&#8217;s omission to make<br \/>\nappropriate claim after paying the requisite court fee cannot be castigated as one<br \/>\nlacking bonafide. It was further opined that the land owners therein would be<br \/>\nentitled to the same amount of compensation, as was determined payable to other<br \/>\nland owners. However, the same shall be subject to payment of court fee.<br \/>\nAccordingly, in the present appeals also, where appropriate amount of court fee<br \/>\nhas not been paid, the award of the enhanced amount in favour of the land owners<br \/>\nshall be subject to payment of difference of court fee.\n<\/p>\n<p>                The appeals and cross-objections are disposed of in the above terms.\n<\/p>\n<p>                                                                 (Rajesh Bindal)<br \/>\n                                                                        Judge<br \/>\nFebruary 10, 2009<br \/>\nmk\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Punjab-Haryana High Court R.
