This order shall dispose of RFA Nos. 1627 of 1989 and 2311 of 1990, as the same arise out of common acquisition.
The landowners have approached this court for further enhancement of compensation for the acquired land.
The facts have been extracted from RFA No. 1627 of 1989. Briefly, the facts are that vide notification dated 2.10.1980, issued under Section 4 of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894 (for short, 'the Act'), the State of Haryana sought to acquire land in village Kultazpur, Tehsil Narnaul, District Mahendergarh, for construction of Hassanpur Distributory. Notification under Section 6 of the Act was issued on 17.12.1980. The Land Acquisition Collector (for short, 'the Collector') vide his award dated 27.2.1981 assessed the market value of the land @ 15,000/- per acre for chahi and 10,000/- per acre for barani kind of land. Dissatisfied with the award of the Collector, the landowners/claimants filed objections. On reference under Section 18 of the Act, the learned court below assessed the compensation @ ` 15,000/- per acre for the acquired land. It is this award which is impugned in the present set of appeals by the landowners.
