petition. The award has been passed by the Collector and filed in his office, which is final and conclusive evidence between the Collector and the persons interested in regard to the true area and value of the land as contemplated under section 12 of the Act. It has been mentioned in the award (Annexure P4) that the Water Supply and Sanitation Department Government of Haryana has fully become owner in possession of the land in question. Meaning thereby, the land has already been vested in the State free from all encumbrances as envisaged under section 16 of the Act. Admittedly, the present petition was filed subsequent to the announcement of the award by the LAC. Once the award of LAC has become final, then the present writ petition is clearly not maintainable, so as to impugning the action of the respondents in acquiring the land in question in view of the law laid down by Hon'ble Supreme Court of India in Star Wire (India) Ltd. v. State of Haryana and others, (1996) 11 Supreme Court Cases 698, Swaika Properties (P) Ltd. and another v. State of Rajasthan and others (2008) 4 Supreme Court Cases 695 and this Court in Kamlesh Chander and others v. State of Haryana and others, 2008 (4) RCR (Civil) 535 . 3. In this view of the matter, we are satisfied that the instant writ petition filed, so as to challenge the notifications whereby the land of the petitioner was acquired after passing the award, is not maintainable, in the obtaining circumstances of the case. Consequently, the present writ petition is hereby dismissed as such.
