             This order shall dispose of CWP Nos. 8329, 8330 of<\/p>\n
1990, 3783 of 1992 and 18502 of 2002 as common questions of law<\/p>\n
and facts are involved in these cases. The petitioners in these cases<\/p>\n
seek quashing of notifications dated 23rd February, 1989 [Annexure<\/p>\n
P-2 and dated 22nd February, 1990 [Annexure P-5] issued under<\/p>\n
Sections 4 and 6 of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894 [for short ‘the Act’]<\/p>\n
respectively whereby their lands situated within the revenue estate of<\/p>\n
Turf Insar, and Patti Maqdum Jadgan, falling within the municipal<\/p>\n
limits of Panipat, have been acquired for the “public purpose” of<\/p>\n
“development and utilization” as ‘residential and commercial area for<\/p>\n
Sector 17 at Panipat’ under the Haryana Urban Development<\/p>\n
Authority Act, 1977.\n<\/p>\n
             A brief reference to the facts pleaded by each of the<\/p>\n
petitioners may be made. In CWP No. 8329 of 1990, the petitioner’s<\/p>\n
land measuring 2195 square yards is under acquisition. The
\n C.W.P. No. 8329 of 1990.                                 ::-2-::\n<\/p>\n
petitioners’ case is that land measuring 3529 square yards [including<\/p>\n
the acquired land] and building constructed there upon was<\/p>\n
purchased by him vide sale deed dated 31.8.1970 and he is running<\/p>\n
a small scale industrial unit known as M\/s Ispat Udyog which is duly<\/p>\n
registered with the Industries Department, Haryana since the year<\/p>\n
1970. His grievance is that the impugned acquisition would cause<\/p>\n
closure of the petitioner’s source of livelihood.<\/p>\n
              In CWP No. 8330 of 1990, the petitioner purchased land<\/p>\n
measuring 1252 square yard in a public auction and has set up a<\/p>\n
functional Industrial unit, known as M\/s Nirman Bharat Engineering<\/p>\n
Works. The petitioner’s grievance is that the acquisition would<\/p>\n
necessarily     mean       closure   of   the   said   Industrial   Unit   and<\/p>\n
consequential deprivation of his source of livelihood.<\/p>\n
              In CWP No. 3783 of 1992, the petitioners own land<\/p>\n
measuring 5540 square yards and according to them, a boundary<\/p>\n
wall upto 8 feet high above the plinth level along with a room and<\/p>\n
tubewell had been constructed. The petitioners, who are residents of<\/p>\n
Ludhiana [Punjab ] are stated to have purchased the afore-stated<\/p>\n
land to establish an industrial unit.\n<\/p>\n
              In CWP No. 18502 of 2002, the total land under<\/p>\n
acquisition is 4 Bighas 11 Biswas where the Industrial Units, Vijay<\/p>\n
Chemicals Works and Aggarwal Chemicals, Panipat, have been set<\/p>\n
up for manufacturing C-1 Casting.\n<\/p>\n
              It is indeed not in dispute and appears to have been<\/p>\n
correctly depicted by the HUDA authorities in the Development Plan<\/p>\n
of Sector 17, Part-III, Panipat that the lands involved in CWP Nos.
\n C.W.P. No. 8329 of 1990.                            ::-3-::\n<\/p>\n
8329, 8330 of 1990 and 18502 of 2002 are abutting either the<\/p>\n
National Highway – G.T.Road or are located near thereto, while the<\/p>\n
land in CWP No. 3783 of 1992 is also closely located and is abutting<\/p>\n
another main road of the City. According to the stand taken by the<\/p>\n
respondent – HUDA, the petitioners’ lands are required to be utilized<\/p>\n
for a specific public purpose of providing ‘green belt’ on the<\/p>\n
G.T.Road\/main City road.\n<\/p>\n
             When these writ petitions were taken up for final disposal<\/p>\n
after a long period of time, there was a serious discord between the<\/p>\n
parties regarding the present status of the lands, or the scope of their<\/p>\n
utility for the alleged public purpose. Consequently, the parties were<\/p>\n
permitted to file fresh additional affidavits and\/or documents so that<\/p>\n
the subsequent events, if any, could be taken into consideration<\/p>\n
while deciding these cases.\n<\/p>\n
             The HUDA authorities, have also been impleaded as<\/p>\n
party-respondents and have filed their reply – affidavits. In addition, a<\/p>\n
copy of the proceedings of the Committee constituted by the Chief<\/p>\n
Administrator, HUDA, Panchkula [Annexure R-1] has also been<\/p>\n
placed on record, reflecting the present status of the petitioners’ land<\/p>\n

additional affidavit dated 19.11.2008 and paras 3 and 4 thereof being<\/p>\n
relevant to the issue, are reproduced as under:-<\/p>\n
             “3. That at the time when the writ petition was filed the
\n             petitioner has raised construction of A Class where the
\n             petitioner has established a factory under the name and
\n             style of Ispat Udyog and the said factory continued
\n             running till 2001-02. The industry was registered as a
\n             Small Scale unit with the Industry Department, Haryana.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
             4. That on account of the circumstances of the family of
\n             the petitioner, the petitioner closed the industry and
\n             established a marriage palace and obtained the licence
\n             from the Municipal Council to run the marriage palace.
\n             The licence is granted on yearly basis. The first licence
\n             was issued for the period from 1.4.2003 to 31.3.2004 and
\n             subsequently, the petitioner had been obtaining the
\n             licence from the Municipal Council regularly and now the
\n             licence which is in force is for the period from 1.4.2008 to
\n             31.3.2009. It will not be out of place to submit that initially
\n             the name of the garden was M\/s Vaishalik Garden,

             The affidavit further explains that after the construction of<\/p>\n
Fly Over in Panipat, there is no necessity to develop a Green Belt<\/p>\n
and that the petitioners are being subjected to hostile discrimination

of 2003 decided on 29.7.2005 [Annexure P-10], have been released<\/p>\n
by the respondents.\n<\/p>\n
             In CWP No. 8330 of 1990 also, the petitioners have filed<\/p>\n
an additional affidavit dated 19.11.2008 and paras 3, 4 and 5 thereof<\/p>\n
read as under:-\n<\/p>\n
             “3. That at the time when the writ petition was filed, the
\n             petitioners had raised construction of A Class as detailed
\n             in para no. 2 and 3 of the writ petition, where        the
\n             petitioners had established a factory under the name and
\n             style of M\/s Nirmal Bharat Engineering Works, which was
\n             a partnership firm. The said Industry was registered with
\n             the Industries Department, Haryana as detailed in para
\n             no. 4 of the writ petition and the firm was also registered
\n             with the Haryana Sales Tax Department, as detailed in
\n             para no. 5 of the writ petition. The industry of the
\n             petitioners continued functioning till January, 2004. The
\n             petitioners’ firm consisted of two partners, namely, Ved
\n             Parkash, the deponent and his mother Smt. Darshana
\n             Devi.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
             4.      That as the children of the family had grown up and
\n             in order to settle them, a new firm under the name and
\n             style of M\/s Shree Radhey Poly Fab was constituted with
\n             two partners, namely, Parmod Kumar Mittal son of Shri
\n             Khubi Ram Mittal and Aman Mittal son of Ved Parkash
\n             Mittal [the deponent]. Parmod Kumar Mittal is the real
\n             brother of the deponent. Accordingly, the factory
\n             premises were given on lease to the newly created
\n             partnership firm vide rent deed dated 18.2.2004. A copy
\n             of the partnership firm and photo copy of the rent deed
\n             are enclosed as Annexures P6 and P7 respectively.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
             5. That the firm referred to above is now running an
\n C.W.P. No. 8329 of 1990.                                   ::-8-::\n<\/p>\n

\n             Black     Sheets,      Tarpaulins,     Covers,      Granuls,   and
\n             lamination of all types of fabrics, craft paper etc. and the
\n             turn over the firm is about Rs.3 crores. The industry is
\n             registered with the       Industries Department as a small
\n             scale unit and is also registered with the Sales Tax
\n             Department, Haryana”.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
             The petitioners in CWP No. 18502 of 2002 have also<\/p>\n
placed on record a copy of the site plan [Annexure P-33] and<\/p>\n
photographs [Annexures P34 to P36].\n<\/p>\n
             I have heard learned counsel for the parties at some<\/p>\n
length and perused the records including the additional affidavits,<\/p>\n
refereed to above. In my considered view, the petitioners’ contention<\/p>\n
that with the construction of the elevated Highway or Fly Over, the<\/p>\n
necessity of providing green belt abutting G.T.Road in Panipat has<\/p>\n
disappeared, carries no weight and merits rejection. The emission<\/p>\n
by the vehicular traffic coupled with its rapid growth as a hub of<\/p>\n
industries, Panipat requires urgent and effective measures before it<\/p>\n
is totally engulfed with dust and smoke. The Green Belts<\/p>\n
undoubtedly can serve as lungs and provide cushion to the needed<\/p>\n
steps.\n<\/p>\n
             Equally true is the fact that even according to the<\/p>\n
respondent authorities, the entire lands of the petitioners are not<\/p>\n
required for developing the green belt. In the absence of any other<\/p>\n
disclosed public purpose for which the acquired land may be utilized,<\/p>\n
it appears that while the petitioners’ industrial units and\/or the on-<\/p>\n
going    business      activities   can   be      effectively    saved   without<\/p>\n
compromising with the cause of ‘public purpose’ which is of
\n C.W.P. No. 8329 of 1990.                           ::-9-::\n<\/p>\n
paramount public importance. What should be the length and width<\/p>\n
of a green belt or where and how the same is to be developed, is an<\/p>\n
experts’ job. The court, for want of expertise and knowledge, ought to<\/p>\n
leave this task for the authorities who are obligated to take up such<\/p>\n
like welfare measures.      However, there appears to be some<\/p>\n
weightage in the petitioners’ claim based upon the order dated<\/p>\n
29.7.2005 [Annexure P-10] whereby the land of a similarly situated<\/p>\n
person, namely, Dhara Singh has been released by the respondents.<\/p>\n
If that land was also forming part of the ‘green belt’, it is not<\/p>\n
understandable as to how the green belt can be developed in<\/p>\n
pieces? All these questions are required to be gone into by the<\/p>\n
respondent-authorities in an objective and dispassionate manner.<\/p>\n
However, in order to obviate hardship to the parties and not to leave<\/p>\n
the things in uncertainty, it is directed that only that part of the<\/p>\n
petitioners’ lands would be acquired or taken into possession which<\/p>\n
is required for the purpose of developing the green belt. Since the<\/p>\n
excess land is not proposed to be utilized for any other specified<\/p>\n
public purpose, no inconvenience would be caused to the<\/p>\n

such excess land is released in favour of the petitioners on the same<\/p>\n

Besides the Green Belt, the respondents will be well within their right<\/p>\n
to utilize a part of the acquired land of the petitioners where an Old<\/p>\n

             For the reasons aforementioned, these writ petitions are<\/p>\n
disposed of with a direction to the Chief Administrator, HUDA,<\/p>\n
Panchkula to constitute a Committee of senior officers to be headed<\/p>\n
by an officer not below the rank of Administrator, HUDA, who may<\/p>\n
visit the spot, hear the petitioners’ grievance and thereafter re-<\/p>\n
determine as to how much land is required for the public purpose,<\/p>\n
i.e., Green Belt or establishment of an Old Age Home. The writ<\/p>\n
petitions qua the land which is required for the aforementioned<\/p>\n
purposes shall be taken to have been dismissed, whereas the left out<\/p>\n
land not required for the aforementioned public purpose shall stand<\/p>\n
released in favour of the petitioners.\n<\/p>\n
             Disposed of accordingly. No costs.<\/p>\n
