Judgment :- 1. These two civil revision petitions are filed challenging the common order passed by the court below in enhancing the compensation payable to the land owners/respondents in pursuant to the land acquisition proceedings initiated under the State Act 31 of 1978. 2. The Land Acquisition Officer has fixed the quantum of compensation payable to the land owners in one case as Rs.1,842.55 plus 15% solatium which comes to Rs.276.38 and thus, a total sum of Rs.2,119. In respect of other case, he fixed the quantum of compensation as Rs.3,685.10 plus Rs.566 towards 15% solatium. Thus, in total a sum of Rs.4,341.10. Aggrieved against the same, the respective land owners preferred appeal for enhancement of compensation. 3. The court below by considering the fact that the data land taken into consideration by the Land Acquisition Officer is not nearer to the acquired property and potentiality of the property mentioned in the data sale deed was not reflecting the potentiality of the acquired property. The court below has also found that the sale deed marked under Ex.A4 dated 03.11.1994 on behalf of the claimants is in respect of a portion of the land which was under acquisition in R.S.No.162/1A and the same is also very closure to the period of 4(1) notification. Thus, by considering the said sale deed, the court below has fixed the quantum as Rs.18,500/- in one case and Rs.13,000/- in another case. 4. I find that the court below has arrived at such quantum in a just and proper manner by taking note of all the relevant materials for arriving at such quantum. I find no irregularity or infirmity in the common order passed by the court below warranting interference in these civil revision petitions. Accordingly, these civil revision petitions are dismissed. No costs. The connected miscellaneous petitions are also dismissed.
