The Land Acquisition Officer awarded companypensation ranging from Rs.10,000/ to Rs.16,000/ per acre in 1981.
That application was directed to be posted along with the appeals.
On reference by judgment dated October 18, 1985, the Civil Judge enhanced the companypensation to Rs.45,000/ per acre.
These appeals arise from the judgment of the Division Bench of the Karnataka High Court made on November 21, 1989 in MFA No.2114/85 and batch.
Subsequently, while the appeals were pending, it would appear that in another acquisition, the XVI Addl City Civil Judge, Bangalore enhanced the companypensation in respect of some other lands Rs.75,000/ per acre and on that basis, the appellants filed an application in August 1989 for permission to pay deficit companyrt fee.
O R D B R The following Order of the Court was delivered Mr.M.Govinda Raju V. The Special Land Additional Land Acquisition Officer Anr.
The appellants filed the appeals in 1986 and though they valued the appeals at Rs.75,000/ per acre, they paid companyrt fee Rs.60,000/ per acre on the basis of which the Appeals came to be numbered.
The only companytroversy raised and argued before us is whether the High Court was justified in refusing to permit the appellants to pay the deficit companyrt fees and to enhance the companypensation Rs.75,000/ per acre The admitted facts are that numberification under Section 4 1 of the land Acquisition Act, 1894 For short, the Act was published on September 29, 1977 acquiring large extent of land by the Bangalore Development Authority for the formation of a layout called Byrasandra Tavarekere Madiwala Scheme for short, BTM Layout .
Thus, these appeals.
