Judgment
CORAM: Hon’ble Mr.Justice Jasbir Singh Hon’ble Mr.Justice Gurdev Singh Present: Mr.Yogesh Goyal, Advocate for the petitioner Jasbir Singh, J. (Oral) This writ petition has been filed with a prayer to quash a notification dated 26.9.2007 (P4), issued under Section 4 of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894 (in short, the Act), proposing to acquire a vast track of land, including land of the petitioner. Further challenge has been laid to a notification dated 25.9.2008(P7), issued under Section 6 of the Act. It is contention of the petitioner that his constructed house has been acquired, whereas residential houses of many others were released from acquisition. Be that as it may, it is not in dispute that award has already been passed, the petitioner allowed the grass to grow under his feet. Now at this belated stage, we are of the opinion that writ petition is not maintainable in view of judgments of the Hon’ble Supreme Court in Star Wire (India) Ltd. v. State of Haryana, (1996) 11 SCC 698; Municipal Civil Writ Petition No.19675 of 2010 2 Council Ahmednagar v. Shah Hyder Beig, (2000) 2 SCC 48; C. Padma v. Dy. Secretary to the Government of Tamil Nadu, (1997) 2 SCC 627; and M/s Swaika Properties Pvt. Ltd. v. State of Rajasthan, JT 2008 (2) SC 280. Dismissed. (Jasbir Singh) Judge
