Accordingly, finding of the Executing Court on this<\/p>\n<p>question was affirmed.\n<\/p>\n<p>              On question No.2 , it was found that the amount earlier paid<\/p>\n<p>cannot be adjusted towards interest because that amount was paid towards<\/p>\n<p>the compensation by the Collector as determined by him or by the court and<\/p>\n<p>in case the amount is further enhanced by the Reference Court or the High<\/p>\n<p>Court\/Supreme Court, in that situation, the claimants could not be allowed<\/p>\n<p>to turn around and to say that the amount received earlier will be adjusted<\/p>\n<p>towards interest and not towards the principal amount of compensation.<\/p>\n<p>              On question No.3, the learned Single Judge, after referring to<\/p>\n<p>the Scheme of the Act and relying on judgment of Hon&#8217;ble Supreme Court<\/p>\n<p>in the case of <a href=\"\/doc\/1087622\/\">Prem Nath Kapoor vs. National Fertilizers Corporation of<\/p>\n<p>India Limited and others<\/a> (1996) 2 S.C.C. 71 concluded that the order under<\/p>\n<p>revision was not sustainable insofar as it provided for making appropriation<\/p>\n<p>of the amount deposited by the Collector, first towards costs, then interest,<\/p>\n<p>then additional amount and remaining to be adjusted towards the principal<\/p>\n<p>amount and the claimants have no right to appropriate the amount which is<\/p>\n<p>deposited strictly in accordance with the Award firstly towards<\/p>\n<p>compensation and then the other benefits accruing out of the compensation<\/p>\n<p>to be paid.\n<\/p>\n<p>              In view of the aforesaid conclusions, impugned order of the<\/p>\n<p>Executing Court was set aside by allowing the revision petition vide<\/p>\n<p>judgment dated 25.10.2001 by which bunch of similar revision petitions<\/p>\n<p>was disposed of, and the Executing Court was directed to disburse the<br \/>\n C.M.13833-36 of 2008 in\/and<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">R.A.No.88-CII of 2002 in\/and                                  4<\/span><br \/>\nC.R.No.3276 of 2001<\/p>\n<p>compensation amount in the following manner :-<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>           &#8220;(i) That the claimants shall be entitled to interest on solatium<\/p>\n<p>           in view of law laid down by Hon&#8217;ble Supreme Court in Sunder&#8217;s<\/p>\n<p>           case (supra).\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>            (ii) That the interest shall be calculated only on the excess<\/p>\n<p>            amount of compensation determined under Section 23(1) and<\/p>\n<p>            not on the amount already determined by the Land Acquisition<\/p>\n<p>            Officer under Section 11 and paid to the party or deposited into<\/p>\n<p>            the Court or determined under Section 26 or Section 54 and<\/p>\n<p>            deposited into the Court.

Hon&#8217;ble Supreme Court vide<\/p>\n<p>judgment dated 14.7.2008 set aside judgment and order dated 18.10.2005 of<\/p>\n<p>this Court (whereby review applications were dismissed in the bunch of<br \/>\n C.M.13833-36 of 2008 in\/and<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">R.A.No.88-CII of 2002 in\/and                                   5<\/span><br \/>\nC.R.No.3276 of 2001<\/p>\n<p>civil revision petitions) and remitted the matter back to this Court for<\/p>\n<p>decision in the light of observations of the Hon&#8217;ble Apex Court made by a<\/p>\n<p>Constitution Bench in the case of <a href=\"\/doc\/1736128\/\">Gurpreet Singh vs. Union of India<\/a> (2006)<\/p>\n<p>8 Supreme Court Cases 457.       It was also observed by the Hon&#8217;ble Apex<\/p>\n<p>Court in judgment dated 14.7.2008 that in the event High Court feels that<\/p>\n<p>while deciding the review petition, it would be appropriate for it to take the<\/p>\n<p>civil revision cases as well, it will be open to the High Court to take up the<\/p>\n<p>review petitions also along with the civil revision cases treating the orders<\/p>\n<p>passed by the High court in revision as set aside.<\/p>\n<p>            Accordingly, review petitions as well as civil revisions have<\/p>\n<p>been taken up for hearing.\n<\/p>\n<p>            We have heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the<\/p>\n<p>records.\n<\/p>\n<p>            It is conceded position that the decree-holders are entitled to<\/p>\n<p>interest on solatium as well. It has been submitted that the only question<\/p>\n<p>that remains to be determined is regarding the manner of appropriation of<\/p>\n<p>the amount deposited by the State\/judgment-debtors.<\/p>\n<p>            In so far as the question of appropriation of the amount<\/p>\n<p>deposited by the judgment debtors is concerned, the same is not res integra.<\/p>\n<p>This question has been dealt with in detail by Hon&#8217;ble Supreme Court in the<\/p>\n<p>case of Prem Nath Kapur (supra). Even the Constitution Bench in the case<\/p>\n<p>of Gurpreet Singh (supra) did not over-rule the ratio of law laid down in the<\/p>\n<p>case of Prem Nath Kapur (supra) on this question. The same was rather<\/p>\n<p>held to be justified. It was observed by the Hon&#8217;ble Apex Court in the case<\/p>\n<p>of Gurpreet Singh (supra) as under :-\n<\/p>\n<p> C.M.13833-36 of 2008 in\/and<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">R.A.No.88-CII of 2002 in\/and                                 6<\/span><br \/>\nC.R.No.3276 of 2001<\/p>\n<p>           &#8220;51. Prem Nath Kapur also indicates that when an award-<\/p>\n<p>           decree is passed specifying the amounts under different heads<\/p>\n<p>           like the amount under Section 23(1), the amount under section<\/p>\n<p>           23(2), the amount under Section 23(1-A) and the interest under<\/p>\n<p>           Section 28 and the judgment-debtor makes a deposit of<\/p>\n<p>           specified sums under these different heads, it will amount to<\/p>\n<p>           the judgment-debtor intimating the decree-holder as to how the<\/p>\n<p>           sum deposited is to be applied in discharge of the obligation of<\/p>\n<p>           the judgment-debtor.    Once a     decree-holder receives the<\/p>\n<p>           payment of the sums thus deposited, he would be accepting the<\/p>\n<p>           appropriation made by the judgment-debtor under the award-<\/p>\n<p>           decree in the scheme of the Land Acquisition Act. This part of<\/p>\n<p>           the reasoning in Prem Nath Kapur is, of course, also based on<\/p>\n<p>           the reasoning that there is some inconsistency in Order 21 Rule<\/p>\n<p>           1 of the Code and the scheme of the Act. Prem Nath Kapur<\/p>\n<p>           also indicates that when the decree itself specifies the amount<\/p>\n<p>           payable under different heads ( the decree has to do so under<\/p>\n<p>           Section 26 of the Act) and amounts are deposited towards those<\/p>\n<p>           different heads, the appropriation would be on the basis of the<\/p>\n<p>           direction under the decree which must be taken to be one for<\/p>\n<p>           crediting the various sums paid under particular heads. On the<\/p>\n<p>           scheme of the Act, especially the wordings of section 34 and<\/p>\n<p>           section 28 of the Act, it is not possible to say that the said<\/p>\n<p>           approach made in Prem Nath Kapur is erroneous or is<\/p>\n<p>           unreasonable or is not (sic) a line of approach that is not<br \/>\n C.M.13833-36 of 2008 in\/and<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">R.A.No.88-CII of 2002 in\/and                                      7<\/span><br \/>\nC.R.No.3276 of 2001<\/p>\n<p>             warranted. Therefore, when the judgment-debtor State makes<\/p>\n<p>             a deposit along with the calculation appropriating distinct sums<\/p>\n<p>             towards various heads of compensation as awarded by the<\/p>\n<p>             Reference Court or by the appellate court in the appellate<\/p>\n<p>             decree, and the amount is received by the decree-holder, the<\/p>\n<p>             decree-holder must be taken to be not entitled to seek an<\/p>\n<p>             appropriation as if the     judgment-debtor has not made any<\/p>\n<p>             intimation and that he is entitled to appropriate at his volition.<\/p>\n<p>             Considering the scheme of compensation under the Act in the<\/p>\n<p>             context of the specific nature of the items specifically referred<\/p>\n<p>             to in section 23 of the Act, we are of the view that the approach<\/p>\n<p>             adopted in Prem Nath Kapur is justified&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>             In view of the aforesaid, learned counsel for both the parties<\/p>\n<p>submitted that the matter may be remitted to the executing Court for passing<\/p>\n<p>fresh order in accordance with law on the question of appropriation of the<\/p>\n<p>amount deposited\/paid by the judgment-debtors.<\/p>\n<p>             In view of the aforesaid submission made by learned counsel<\/p>\n<p>for both the parties, we dispose of all the connected review petitions and<\/p>\n<p>the civil revision petitions with the following directions :-<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>             (i)   the claimants\/decree-holders shall be entitled to interest on<\/p>\n<p>             additional amount and solatium.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>             (ii) the Executing Courts shall pass fresh orders in accordance<\/p>\n<p>             with law on the question of appropriation of the amount<\/p>\n<p>             paid\/deposited by the judgment-debtors.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>             (iii) the parties are directed to appear before the Executing<br \/>\n C.M.13833-36 of 2008 in\/and<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">R.A.No.88-CII of 2002 in\/and                                 8<\/span><br \/>\nC.R.No.3276 of 2001<\/p>\n<p>           Courts for further proceedings on 29.1.2009.
