no such case was ever set out by the writ petitioners in the writ petition filed or the present appeals and therefore, the question of consideration of the abstract contention sought to be raised by the writ petitioners at this stage, without any foundation of fact, cannot be entertained by this Court. Moreover, under Section 31 of the Act of 1894, on making the award under Section 11, the Collector shall tender payment of compensation awarded by him to the persons interested entitled thereto according to award and shall pay it to them unless prevented by some one or more of the contingency mentioned in sub-sections (2), (3) and (4) of Section 31. From the provisions of Section 31, in no manner it could be inferred that if the award amount is deposited with some delay, it will vitiate the acquisition proceedings. It is pertinent to note that the writ petitioners have already accepted the amount of compensation with interest and therefore, at this stage, even otherwise, they are precluded from raising any issue regarding the legality of land acquisition proceedings on the ground of alleged violation of the provisions of the Act of 1894.
