The present Appeals were heard together with LA.APP. 59/2007 captioned Bed Ram v. UOI & Anr. being argued as the lead matter with the consent of the parties. For the sake of brevity, the facts are being recorded from the lead matter captioned. BRIEF FACTS

1. The present Appeal has been filed under Section 54 of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894 [hereinafter referred to as “LA Act”] against the judgment and decree dated 18.10.2006 passed by the Court of Learned ADJ, Tis Hazari Court, Delhi in LAC No. 1 of 2003 captioned Bed Ram v. UOI & Anr. [hereinafter referred to as “Impugned Judgment”].

2. By the Impugned Judgment the learned Reference Court enhanced the market value of the acquired land from Rs.27,344/- per Bigha, which was awarded by the Land Acquisition Collector [hereinafter referred to as "LAC"] to Rs.89,600/- per Bigha for the acquired land. The learned Reference Court also granted 30% solatium on the value of the land. In addition, it was directed that the Appellant is entitled to 12% interest on the market value of the land and enhanced compensation at rate under Section 28 of the LA Act at the rate of 9% per annum from the date of notification till the date of award or date of dispossession, [whichever is earlier], till the expiry of one year and thereafter @15% per annum.

Award No. 18/1992-93 was passed for acquisition of land admeasuring 874 Bighas and 4 Biswas in village Khizrabad. Award No. 16/1992-93 was passed for acquisition of land admeasuring 2009 Bighas and 10 Biswas in village Nangli LA.APP. 59/2007 & connected Razapur and Award No. 13/1992-93 was passed for acquisition of land admeasuring 1563 Bighas and 18 Biswas in village Garhi Mendu [hereinafter collectively referred to as “acquired land”] as set out in the Table below: Award No. Village Area Area of land acquisitioned by the Award Award No. 13/1992-93 Garhi Mendu 1563 Bighas 18 Biswas Award No. 14/1992-93 Kilokari 2226 Bighas and 5 Biswas Award No. 16/1992-93 Nangli Razapur 2009 Bighas and 10 Biswas Award No. 18/1992-93 Khizrabad 874 Bighas and 4 Biswas

4. Pursuant thereto, the notifications under Section 6 and Section 17 of the LA Act were issued on 22.06.1990 in respect of the acquired land including at villages Madanpur Khadar, Kilokari, Behlolpur Khadar, Chuck Chilla, Okhla, Jogabai, Nangli Razapur, Khizrabad, Jasola and on 20.06.1990 in respect of village Garhi Mendu. The possession of the acquired land was taken in the year 1995.

5. The Award No.14/1992-93 was passed by the Land Acquisition Collector on 19.06.1992, for land admeasuring 2226 Bighas and 5 Biswa in village Kilokari whereby compensation or market value of the land was ascertained at Rs.27,344/-per Bigha was awarded to the Appellant for the acquired land [hereinafter referred to as “Kilokari Award”]. The LAC took into consideration sale deeds of the land executed during the years 1985-89 and took out the average value thereof at Rs. 18,736/-. In addition, it took into account an office order no. F.9(20)/80-L&B/4313-16 dated 03.05.1990 [hereinafter referred to as “Office Order of 1990”] which came into force from

27.04.1990 and after working out a pro-rata discount, it valued the acquired LA.APP. 59/2007 & connected land at Rs. 27,334/- per Bigha for the land at village Kilokari.

6. The LAC similarly assessed the value of the land for the villages Khizrabad, Nangli Razapur and Garhi Mendu and passed three separate awards assessing the market value of the land of these villages at a uniform rate of Rs. 27,334/- per Bigha. The reason as assigned by the LAC for the uniform rate was that the purpose of acquisition of all land was the same and all villages were adjacent and contiguous to each other. The village wise details of the four awards are set out below: Award No. Name of Village Kind of Land 14/1992-93 Kilokari Sailabi 18/1992-93 Khizrabad Khadar 16/1992-93 Nangli Razapur Khadar 13/1992-93 Garhi Mendu Flooded land

7. Subsequently, by virtue of a notification under Section 48(1) of the LA Act dated 25.01.1995, lands admeasuring 1430 Bighas and 10 Biswas in village Kilokari, Behlolpur Khadar, Nangli Razapur and Chuck-Chilla stood de-notified by the LAC. The reasons as set out by the LAC in its order dated

05.11.2004 for de-notification, was that the lands admeasuring 1430 Bighas and 10 Biswas were submerged or prone to be submerged, and hence were de-notified. THE HISTORY OF ASSESSMENT

8. In the meantime, being dissatisfied with the low assessment of the market value of the land by the LAC, a reference was filed under Section 18 of the LA Act before the learned Reference Court on 13.07.1992 to submit LA.APP. 59/2007 & connected that the present market value of the acquired land is about Rs.10,000/- per square yard and the acquired land does not form part of riverbed and that large portion of land of village, Kilokari was acquired in the year 1959 wherein the LAC assessed the market value of the land at Rs 26,000/- per Bigha at that time. It was contended that LAC assessed the market value of acquired land, without taking into account the prices of land and their enhanced value during the period of 30 years between 1959 and 1989, and without considering the prevailing market rate of the area.

9. The Reference Petitions were filed in relation to villages at Kilokari, Nangli Razapur, Khizrabad and Garhi Mendu before the learned Reference Court. The learned Reference Court in terms of the judgment passed in LAC No. 18 of 2005 titled ‘Attar Singh v UOI’ [hereinafter referred to as “Attar Singh case”] pertaining to village Khizrabad, allowed the Reference Petitions by an order dated 25.09.2006. The learned Reference Court relying upon the judgment of Tindey & Ors v UOI & Anr.1 [hereinafter referred to as “Tindey case”], increased the compensation awarded to Rs.89,600/- per Bigha.

9.1 Similarly, the Reference Petitions filed in relation to land in the revenue estate of village Kilokari were decided. The lead matter for the village Kilokari is LAC No. 1/2003 titled ‘Bed Ram v. UOI & Anr.’ [hereinafter referred to as “Bed Ram Reference Court case”] whereby the compensation was increased by the learned Reference Court to Rs. 89,600/- per Bigha by a judgment dated 19.06.1992 based on the judgment in the Attar Singh case and the Tindey case. 1 1999 SCC OnLine Del 1070 LA.APP. 59/2007 & connected

9.2 In respect of Petitions filed for the land acquired at village Nangli Razapur, the learned Reference Court in LAC No. 2/1998 titled ‘Bhopal Singh v. Union of India & Anr.’ by a judgment dated 29.08.2007 [hereinafter referred to as the “Nangli Razapur Reference Court Judgment”], relied upon the Attar Singh case and the Bed Ram Reference Court case to award compensation of Rs. 89,600/- per Bigha.

9.3 So far as concerns the village Garhi Mendu, the learned Reference Court by a judgment dated 26.07.2007 passed in LAC No. 96/1 of 2006 titled Khazan Singh v. UOI [hereinafter referred to as “Khazan Singh case”] relying on the judgment of Smt. Chawli Devi (Deceased) through her LRs v. UOI & DDA being LAC No. 334/1 of 2006, similarly enhanced the market value of the acquired land from Rs. 27,344/- per Bigha to Rs. 90,102/- per Bigha.

10. As stated above, the learned Reference Court enhanced the market value of the acquired land in all four villages – Kilokari, Nangli Razapur, Khizrabad to Rs.89,600/- per Bigha and for Garhi Mendu Rs. 90,102/- per Bigha. The other antecedent directions such as solatium and interest were also awarded by the learned Reference Court. Aggrieved by this award, the Appellants filed the present Appeals before this Court. By a judgment dated

07.06.2011, a Coordinate Bench of this Court decided a batch of Appeals, including the present Appeal of which the LA APP. 59/2007 captioned Bed Ram v. Union of India & Anr. was the lead matter to hold that the fair market value of the land acquired in three villages of Kilokari, Khizrabad and Nangli Razapur as set out by the learned Reference Court was correctly determined LA.APP. 59/2007 & connected at Rs.89,600/- per Bigha. The Coordinate Bench thus dismissed the batch of Appeals including the present Appeal.

10.1 By a separate order dated 07.06.2011 also, the Coordinate Bench of this Court decided the batch of Appeals including LA. APP. 1038/2008 captioned UOI. v. Khazan Singh & Ors. in respect of village Garhi Mendu, and revised the compensation awarded by the learned Reference Court to Rs. 89,600/- per Bigha as in the case of village Kilokari, Nangli Razapur and Khizrabad.

11. The order(s) dated 07.06.2011, as corrected by order dated 22.07.2011 passed by this Court, were challenged by the Appellant by filing a Special Leave Petition before the Supreme Court being Civil Appeal No. 1939/2012 captioned Union of India v. Ram Lal & Ors. and connected matters [hereinafter referred to as “SC Judgment”]. The Supreme Court by order dated

13.01.2015 passed two directions with respect to the matters in villages Kilokari, Khizrabad Nangli Razapur and Garhi Mendu. In the first instance, it was held that a Review Petition be filed before the High Court to permit the Appellant to produce additional documents, maps and awards before Single Judge within 30 days. The Court further held that if the Review Petition(s) were filed within 30 days, the Single Judge would consider the same without going into the question of limitation. The relevant extract of the SC judgment is set out below: “2. Briefly stated, the facts in the present appeals and petition are: the lis pertains to the determination of fair market value of lands admeasuring 1536 Bigha 10 biswa claimants/respondents herein. The said land was acquired under Section 11 of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894 (for short, "the Act"), by the appellants/petitioner herein for the public purpose of planned development of Delhi. in village Garhi Mendu, belonging

3. The said land, along with land in three other villages, namely Khirzahad [sic: Khizrabad], Kilolari [sic: Kilokari] and Chak Chilla, was notified by LA.APP. 59/2007 & connected the Government, vide Notification No. F. 9 (1)/89—L&B (i.) issued under Section 4(1) of the Act, dated 23.06.1989. The same was followed by Notification No. F. 9 (I)/89-L&B/LA(ii) & (iii) issued under Sections 6 and 17 of the Act, dated 20.06.1990. In pursuance of the said Notifications, notices under Sections 9 and 10 of the Act were issued to all interested persons.

4. The Land Acquisition Collector (for short, “the LAC”), took into consideration Order No. F-9(20)/80-L&B/4313-16, issued by the Delhi Administration regarding fixation of minimum price of agricultural land by the LAC, dated 03.05.1990. In light of the aforesaid policy of the State administration the LAC vide Award No. 13/1992-93, determined the compensation to be awarded at the rate of Rs.27,344/- per Bigha along with statutory benefits, dated 19.06.1992.

5. Dissatisfied with the award of the LAC, the respondents herein sought for a reference under Section 18 of the Act for adjudication of the fair market value. It was argued by the claimants that the LAC did not consider, inter alia, the potential value of the land, that the revenue estate of the village in which the land was situate was surrounded by posh colonies developed by the Delhi Development Authority and other private colonies, and that all basic civic amenities were available to the land. The Reference Court, while considering the contentions raised by the parties to the lis, took notice of the award of the LAC with regard to land situate in villages Khizrabad, Kilokari and Chak Chilla, dated 19,06.1992. By the said awards, the LAC had awarded compensation at the rate of Rs.27,344/- per Bigha along with statutory benefits, It was further noticed, by the Reference Court, that a reference had been, sought against the said awards, and consequently, taking into consideration the location, potentiality, nature, topography of the said land, the compensation was enhanced to Rs.89,600/- per bigha.

2. In our considered opinion, these facts, as also the maps and relevant documents, may be brought to the notice of the High Court by the appellant(s)/petitioners herein by filing appropriate review petition(s) before the High Court within thirty days’ time from today.

3. If such review petition(s) is/are filed within the time granted by this Court, we request the learned Single Judge to consider the same in accordance with law, but without going into the question of limitation.

4. Further, in the peculiar facts and circumstances of these cases, we permit the appellant(s)/petitioners herein to produce the additional documents, maps, awards, if any, which are in their possession, before the learned Single Judge along with the said review petition(s).

5. All contentions of the parties are kept open to be agitated before the learned Single Judge.” [Emphasis supplied] LA.APP. 59/2007 & connected

12. Subsequently, several Review Petitions in relation to the acquired land were filed before this Court by the Appellants. By its order dated 13.03.2015, a Coordinate Bench of this Court directed that the decision dated 07.06.2011 is withdrawn vis-(cid:224)-vis the review petitioners and it was directed that the present Appeals would be reconsidered by the roster bench after giving an opportunity to the Appellant/Review Petitioners to place on record further evidence. The relevant extract of the order dated 13.03.2015 is below: “3. The review petitioners, are relying upon a large number of documents which include a few judicial determinations in Land Acquisition References made.

4. In ethos with the order passed by the Supreme Court on January 13, 2015, the review petitioners would be entitled to formally lead evidence and prove the documents on which they rely requiring a re-consideration of the matter keeping in light such documents which may be proved.

5. Since I am presiding over a Division Bench, it may not be possible to spare time in the near future to record evidence and thereafter decide the issue afresh, as agreed to between the learned counsel for the parties, the review petitions are being disposed of declaring that the decision dated June 07, 2011 is withdrawn vis-a-vis the review petitioners. Land Acquisition Appeals filed by the review petitioners would be re-considered by the roster bench, after giving opportunity to the review petitioners to lead further evidence but limited to proving such documents and judicial orders, which have been filed under cover of the review petition.

6. The Review Petitions stand disposed of.” [Emphasis supplied]

13. By an order dated 30.07.2015, this Court directed that additional evidence and additional documents be filed in the lead matter i.e., the Bed Ram case and the other Appellants can rely on these Affidavits and additional documents for other cases. The relevant extract of the order dated 30.07.2015 is set out below: “Counsel for Union of India states that they are in the process of collecting the records and, therefore, seeks an adjournment. LA.APP. 59/2007 & connected Upon remand by the Supreme Court with liberty to file additional evidence at the behest of the appellants/claimants, Hon’ble Mr. Justice P.

Let one set of additional affidavit and additional documents to be led in evidence be filed in lead case, i.e. LA App No.59/2007, titled Bed Ram v. Union of India. Since the said evidence is sought to be relied by all the other appellants, there is no necessity of filing separate affidavit of evidence in the other cases.

17. Learned Senior Counsel/Learned Counsel for the Appellants have divided their submissions into 3 primary contentions: (i) location of land and its potentiality; (ii) submissions of exemplars; (iii) land being ‘Sailabi’ cannot have much potentiality is not a correct analysis.

18. Learned Senior Counsel/Learned Counsel for the Appellants submit that land was assessed by LAC at rate of Rs. 26,000/- in the year 1959. Hence, the Award by LAC in the year 1992 at the rate of Rs. 27,344/- per Bigha was not the fair market value. Learned Senior Counsel/Learned Counsel for the Appellants submit that the Reference Court in the Impugned Judgment had observed that, since the market value of land increases over the years, it is unlikely that prices of land have remained stagnant from the year 1959 when market price was Rs. 26,000/- per Bigha and therefore rate of land would have been 10% per annum from 1959. Learned Senior Counsel/Learned Counsel for the Appellants submit that as per 10% p.a. progressive increase from 1959 to 1989 as observed in the Impugned Judgment the actual market value should be more than Rs. 1000/- per square yard or approximately Rs. 30 lakhs per Bigha. The learned Reference Court on 18.10.2006 passed the Impugned Judgment assessing market value of acquired land at rate of Rs.89,600/- per Bigha as on 23.06.1989. Other antecedents related to the acquired land LA.APP. 59/2007 & connected pertaining to solatium and interest was also awarded. While assessing market value of acquired land in village Kilokari, the learned Reference Court drew comparison with village Khizrabad stating that both lands stood acquired by same notification and for the same purpose and the location is also within the same vicinity and accordingly awarded the same market value as awarded in Tindey case.

18.1 Learned Senior Counsel/Learned Counsel for the Appellants submit that land of village, Kilokari, Behlolpur Khadar, Nangli Razapur, Chuck- chilla admeasuring 1430 Bigha and 10 biswa was de-notified under Section 48(1) of the LA Act by a gazette notification dated 25.01.1995. On

05.11.2004, order was passed by the LAC assigning reasons that since part of the land was found to be submerged in the river Yamuna land was de-notified. Emphasis is laid on the fact that the land not submerged was retained and acquired by the Respondents and the acquired land in these Appeals forms part of the land.

18.2 It was contended that the Section 4 notification was also the same in respect of land acquired for village Behlolpur Khadar and the compensation awarded by the LAC in this village was enhanced by the learned Reference Court to Rs.2.5 lacs per Bigha in terms of a judgment dated 04.01.2011 passed by the learned Reference Court in LAC 75/2008 captioned Smt. Sudesh Bhatia v. Union of India & Anr.

18.2.1 It was further contended that relying on the testimony of AW-1, Kailash Sharma, that the witness had stated that they had been cultivating the land in question until its acquisition in 1989 and that there was no examination LA.APP. 59/2007 & connected conducted on the aspect of flooding. In fact, it is stated that the land was irrigated from the water of river Yamuna and not submerged.

18.3 Learned Senior Counsel/Learned Counsel for the Appellants submit that the market value for the land of village, Behlolpur Khadar and Jasola, both acquired under the same notification as the acquired land, has been assessed at rate of Rs. 2.5 lacs per Bigha for Behlolpur Khadar and Rs. 4948/- per sq. yard for Jasola respectively. For the village, Behlolpur Khadar compensation has already been received by the claimants. Reliance is placed upon the judgment of the Supreme Court in Union of India v. Bal Ram & Anr2 to submit that if the nature and quality of lands is by and large similar to the notified land there should be no interference with respect to the amount of compensation to be awarded. Further reliance is placed upon the judgment of the Supreme Court in the case of Om Prakash (D) by LRs & Ors. v. Union of India & Anr3 and Delhi Development Authority v Rajendra Singh & Ors.4 to submit that there should be no discrimination between landowners when land is of similar nature.

18.3.1 It is contended that the acquired land is half a kilometre away from Maharani Bagh and village Jasola is about one kilometre away from village Kilokari while village Behlolpur Khadar is also a part of adjoining village Kilokari, yet a distinction has been drawn by the learned Reference Court in the award for these four villages of Kilokari, Khizrabad, Nangli Razapur and Garhi Mendu without any legal basis.
