Having regard to the facts of the<br \/>\ncase, the appeals are taken up for final disposal today.\n<\/p>\n<p>\tWhat<br \/>\nis challenged in these appeals filed under Section 54 of the Land<br \/>\nAcquisition Act, 1894 [&#8220;the Act&#8221; for short] read with<br \/>\nSection 96 of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908 is the legality of<br \/>\ncommon judgment and award dated March 31, 2006, rendered by the<br \/>\nlearned 4th Additional Senior Civil Judge, Ahmedabad (R) at<br \/>\nNavrangpura, in Land Acquisition Case Nos. 343 to 359 of 2002, by<br \/>\nwhich the claimants have been awarded additional amount of<br \/>\ncompensation at the rate of Rs. 27.40 Ps. per sq.mt., for their<br \/>\nacquired lands, over and above the compensation offered to them at<br \/>\nthe rate of Rs. 2.40 Ps. per sq.mt.  by the Special Land Acquisition<br \/>\nOfficer vide award dated December 22, 2000.\n<\/p>\n<p>2.\tThe<br \/>\nExecutive Engineer, Narmada Yojna, Division No.8, Dholka proposed to<br \/>\nthe State Government to acquire lands of village Rupgadh, Taluka :<br \/>\nDholka, District : Ahmedabad for the public purpose of construction<br \/>\nof a canal under Narmada Project. On<br \/>\nperusal of the said proposal, the State Government was satisfied that<br \/>\nthe lands of village Rupgadh specified therein were likely to be<br \/>\nneeded for the said public purpose. Therefore, a notification under<br \/>\nSection 4(1) of the Act was issued, which was published in the<br \/>\nOfficial Gazette on August 28, 1998. Thereafter necessary inquiry as<br \/>\ncontemplated by Section 5A of the Act was conducted. On completion of<br \/>\ninquiry, a report as contemplated by Section 5A(2) of the Act was<br \/>\nforwarded by the Special Land Acquisition Officer to the State<br \/>\nGovernment. On consideration of the said report, the State Government<br \/>\nwas satisfied that the lands of village Rupgadh, which were specified<br \/>\nin the notification published under Section 4(1) of the Act were<br \/>\nneeded for the public purpose of construction of a canal under<br \/>\nNarmada Project. Therefore, a declaration under Section 6 of the Act<br \/>\nwas made, which was published in the Official Gazette on March 16,<br \/>\n1999. The interested persons were thereafter served with notices for<br \/>\ndetermination of  compensation payable to them. Accordingly, the<br \/>\nclaimants appeared before the Special Land Acquisition Officer and<br \/>\nclaimed compensation at the rate of Rs. 50\/- per sq.mt. However,<br \/>\nhaving regard to the materials placed before him, the Special Land<br \/>\nAcquisition Officer by his award dated December 22, 2000 offered<br \/>\ncompensation to the claimants at the rate of Rs. 2.40 Ps. per sq.mt.<br \/>\n The claimants were of the opinion that the offer of compensation<br \/>\nmade by the Special Land Acquisition Officer was totally inadequate.<br \/>\nTherefore, they submitted applications under Section 18 of the Act<br \/>\nrequiring the Special Land Acquisition Officer to refer their cases<br \/>\nto the  Court for the purpose of determination of just amount of<br \/>\ncompensation payable to them. Accordingly, references were made to<br \/>\nthe District Court, Ahmedabad (R) at Navrangpura, where they were<br \/>\nnumbered as Land Acquisition Case Nos.343 to 359 of 2002.\n<\/p>\n<p>3.\tOn<br \/>\nbehalf of the claimants,  witness Ranjitbhai Ravjibhai Parmar was<br \/>\nexamined at Exh.27 in support of their claim for enhanced<br \/>\ncompensation. The witness stated that the lands acquired were highly<br \/>\nfertile and that as they were irrigated and even, each claimant was<br \/>\nable to raise crops of cotton, cumin-seeds, juvar, til, paddy, wheat<br \/>\netc. The witness mentioned that each claimant was able to earn net<br \/>\nprofit of Rs. 40,000\/- per Bigha per year from the sale of<br \/>\nagricultural produces. In order to support his claim that the lands<br \/>\nacquired were highly fertile, the witness produced 7\/12 Extracts<br \/>\nrelating to the lands acquired at Exhs.14 to 19. The witness stated<br \/>\nthat boundaries of his village Rupgadh were touching the boundaries<br \/>\nof village Koth and that Narmada canal was coming from village Koth<br \/>\nto the sim of his village. The witness further explained that the<br \/>\nsurvey numbers of village Koth and the survey numbers acquired in the<br \/>\ninstant case for the purpose of construction of a canal under the<br \/>\nNarmada Project were adjoining each other. The witness mentioned that<br \/>\nfor the purpose of construction of canal under Narmada Project, lands<br \/>\nof village Koth were acquired, for which the Reference Court had<br \/>\nawarded compensation at the rate of Rs.29.80 ps. per sq.mt. and,<br \/>\ntherefore, the claimants were entitled to enhanced compensation on<br \/>\nthe basis of the said previous award. The witness produced previous<br \/>\naward of the Reference Court relating to the lands of village Koth at<br \/>\nExh.24. The witness further asserted that the lands of village Koth,<br \/>\nwhich were acquired earlier for the public purpose of construction of<br \/>\na canal under Narmada Project were similar in all respects to the<br \/>\nlands acquired in the instant case including fertility and that<br \/>\nsimilar crops were being raised on the lands of both the villages.<br \/>\nThe witness stated that a Tar-road was available for the purpose of<br \/>\napproaching village Koth from his village and that village Koth was<br \/>\nsituated at a distance of  1-1\/2 KM away from his village.\n<\/p>\n<p>\tThis<br \/>\nwitness was cross-examined by the learned Counsel for the acquiring<br \/>\nauthorities. However, nothing substantial could be elicited nor the<br \/>\nassertion made by the witness that the lands which were acquired<br \/>\npreviously from village Koth were similar in all respects to the<br \/>\nlands acquired in the instant case could be demonstrated to be<br \/>\nuntrue.\n<\/p>\n<p>4.\tIt<br \/>\nmay be stated that on behalf of the acquiring authorities, no witness<br \/>\nwas examined at all. On appreciation of evidence adduced by the<br \/>\nparties, the Reference Court concluded that the lands acquired in the<br \/>\ninstant cases were irrigated lands. The Reference Court further<br \/>\ndeduced that previous award of the Reference Court relating to the<br \/>\nlands of village Koth was a relevant piece of evidence for the<br \/>\npurpose of determining the market value of the lands acquired in the<br \/>\ninstant cases. Placing reliance on the said previous award, the<br \/>\nReference Court has awarded additional amount of compensation to the<br \/>\nclaimants at the rate of Rs.27.40 ps.per sq.mt.   by the impugned<br \/>\naward, giving rise to the above-numbered appeals.\n<\/p>\n<p>5.\tThis<br \/>\nCourt has heard Mr.Jaswant K.Shah, learned Assistant Government<br \/>\nPleader for the appellants, and Mr.G.M.Amin, learned Counsel for the<br \/>\nclaimant\/s in each appeal, at length and in great detail. This Court<br \/>\nhas also considered  the paper-book supplied by the learned Counsel<br \/>\nfor the claimants, which includes oral as well as documentary<br \/>\nevidence adduced by the claimants before the Reference Court. It is<br \/>\ntrue that the witness for the claimants could not make good his<br \/>\nassertion that each claimant was earning RS.40,000\/- per Bigha per<br \/>\nyear from the sale of agricultural produces. However, the said fact<br \/>\nis of no importance, inasmuch as the claimants never claimed enhanced<br \/>\ncompensation on yield basis, nor enhanced compensation was claimed by<br \/>\nthe claimants on the basis of comparable sale instances. What was<br \/>\nrelied upon by the claimants was previous award of the Reference<br \/>\nCourt relating to the lands of village Koth, which was produced at<br \/>\nExh.24. Exh.24 indicates that the lands of village Koth were acquired<br \/>\nfor the public purpose of construction of a canal under Narmada<br \/>\nProject pursuant to publication of notification issued under Section<br \/>\n4(1) of the Act in the Official Gazette on April 23, 1998. Therein,<br \/>\nthe Special Land Acquisition Officer by his award dated June 14, 1999<br \/>\nhad offered compensation to the claimants at the rate of Rs.1.90 ps.<br \/>\nper sq.mt. Feeling aggrieved, the claimants had sought references.<br \/>\nAccordingly, references were made to the District Court, Ahmedabad<br \/>\n(R) at Navrangpura, where they were numbered as Land Acquisition Case<br \/>\nNos.159 to 171 of 2001. In those cases, on behalf of the claimants,<br \/>\nwitness Lalubhai Jasmatsang was examined at Exh.31, whereas no<br \/>\nwitness was examined on behalf of the acquiring authorities. Therein,<br \/>\nthe claimants had relied upon the previous award of the Reference<br \/>\nCourt relating to the lands of village Koth rendered in Land<br \/>\nAcquisition Case Nos.26 of 1987, which was produced at Exh.29, in<br \/>\nsupport of their claim for enhanced compensation. On appreciation of<br \/>\nevidence adduced by the claimants, the Reference Court awarded<br \/>\nadditional amount of compensation to the claimants at the rate of<br \/>\nRs.27.90 ps. per sq.mt. by judgment and award dated December 10,<br \/>\n2003. During the course of hearing of the appeals, the learned<br \/>\nCounsel for the claimants has produced simple copy of judgment dated<br \/>\nNovember 7, 2006 rendered by the Division Bench in First Appeal<br \/>\nNo.3341 to 3353 of 2006, for perusal of the Court. It indicates that<br \/>\nthe judgment and award dated December 10, 2003 rendered by the<br \/>\nlearned 2nd Extra Assistant Judge and Special Judge (LAR), Ahmedabad<br \/>\n(R) at Navrangpura, in Land Acquisition Case Nos.159 to 171 of 2001<br \/>\nwas challenged before the High Court in the above-numbered appeals<br \/>\nand the appeals were dismissed by judgment dated November 7, 2006. It<br \/>\nis well settled that previous award of the Reference Court relating<br \/>\nto the lands of a village, which has attained finality, can be relied<br \/>\nupon as a good piece of evidence for the purpose of determining<br \/>\nmarket value of similar lands acquired subsequently from the<br \/>\nadjoining village. Under the circumstances, this Court is of the<br \/>\nopinion that the Reference Court did not commit any error in placing<br \/>\nreliance on the previous award of the Reference Court relating to the<br \/>\nlands of village Koth for the purpose of determining market value of<br \/>\nthe lands acquired in the instant cases. The contention that in the<br \/>\ninstant cases, lands acquired were not irrigated lands; whereas the<br \/>\nlands which were subject matter of the previous award of the<br \/>\nReference Court relating to the lands of village Koth, were irrigated<br \/>\nlands and, therefore, the impugned award should be suitably modified,<br \/>\nhas no substance. It may be mentioned that the witness for the<br \/>\nclaimants had produced necessary documents at Exhs.16 to 20 to<br \/>\nindicate that the lands acquired were irrigated lands. This evidence<br \/>\nwas not challenged by the acquiring authorities at all. Further,<br \/>\nExh.35 is Schedule `A&#8217; attached to the award of the Special Land<br \/>\nAcquisition Officer in Case No.16 of 1998. It indicates that the<br \/>\nacquired lands were irrigated lands. Therefore, the plea that the<br \/>\nlands acquired in the instant cases  were not irrigated lands and,<br \/>\ntherefore, the previous award of the Reference Court relating to the<br \/>\nlands of village Koth could not have been relied upon, has no<br \/>\nsubstance and is hereby rejected. On reappreciation of evidence<br \/>\nadduced by the parties, this Court is of the opinion that correct<br \/>\nfindings of facts have been arrived at by the Reference Court on<br \/>\nappreciation of evidence adduced before it, to which well-settled<br \/>\nprinciples of law have been applied. The learned Assistant Government<br \/>\nPleader could not persuade this Court to take a view different than<br \/>\nthe one which is taken by the Reference Court on appreciation of<br \/>\nevidence adduced before it. Therefore, the appeals, which have no<br \/>\nmerits, are liable to be dismissed.\n<\/p>\n<p>\tFor<br \/>\nthe foregoing reasons, all the appeals fail and are hereby dismissed.<br \/>\nThere shall be no orders as to costs.\n<\/p>\n<p>\tThe<br \/>\nRegistry is directed to draw decree in terms of this judgment<br \/>\nimmediately.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t[J.M.PANCHAL,J.]<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t[SMT.ABHILASHA<br \/>\nKUMARI,J.]<\/p>\n<p>(patel)<\/p>\n<p>\t\t   \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\t\t   Top<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gujarat High Court Spl vs Bhailal on 12 October, 2010 Author: J.M.Panchal,&amp;Nbsp;Honble Smt.
