JUDGMENT : Special Leave to Appeal (C)......CC 8453/2017 has been filed by the State of Haryana challenging the judgment and order dated 29th June, 2016 passed by the High Court of Punjab and Haryana in M/s. G.D. Goenka Tourism Corporation Limited & Anr. Vs. State of Haryana and Others. 2. There are some other similar matters that are listed today on the same subject, that is, with regard to acquisition of the land of the respondents. 3. It is submitted by learned counsel for the State of Haryana that the matter is covered by the recent decision of a Bench of 3 learned Judges of this Court in the case of Indore Development Authority Vs. Shailendra (Dead) Through Lrs. And Ors., (2018) 2 Scale 1. 4. During the course of the submissions made by learned counsel for the State of Haryana, some learned senior counsel were present in Court and they requested to be heard in the matter since they had been engaged in some similar matters. They submitted that the decision in Indore Development Authority had unsettled a long standing statement of law and had very serious repercussions on land acquisition cases. 5. Acceding to their request, we heard some learned senior counsel led by Mr. Mukul Rohatgi, Sr. Adv. and we also heard learned counsel for the State of Haryana. 6. Mr. P.S. Patwalia, learned senior counsel who has been engaged to represent the State of Haryana expressed his personal difficulty in appearing in Court today and tomorrow. However, he did appear for a short while and requested that the matter may be taken up on some other day. 7. Acceding to his request, we list the matter on 7th March, 2018 as part-heard matter. 8. It was submitted by Mr. Mukul Rohatgi, learned senior counsel and by other learned senior counsel that when a Bench of 3 learned Judges does not agree with the decision rendered by another Bench of 3 learned Judges, the appropriate course of action would be to refer the matter to a larger Bench. He submitted that one of the learned Judges in Indore Development Authority (supra) has expressed that view. 9. It was also submitted by Mr. Rohatgi that a Bench of 3 learned Judges cannot hold another decision rendered by a Bench of 3 learned Judges as per incuriam. He submitted that one of the learned Judges in Indore Development Authority (supra) has expressed that view. 9. It was also submitted by Mr. Rohatgi that a Bench of 3 learned Judges cannot hold another decision rendered by a Bench of 3 learned Judges as per incuriam. He referred to some decisions but we need not go into them at the present moment. 10. Hearing is not concluded on the issue whether the matter should at all be referred to a larger Bench or not. However, we were informed by Mr. Rohatgi that some cases have already been decided on the basis of the judgment rendered in the case of Indore Development Authority (supra), without the matter being referred to a larger Bench. 11. We have also been informed by learned counsel appearing on both the sides that some similar matters are listed tomorrow as well and it is possible that in the next couple of days similar matters may be listed before various High Courts. 12. Taking all this into consideration, we are of the opinion that it would be appropriate if in the interim and pending a final decision on making a reference (if at all) to a larger Bench, the High Courts be requested not to deal with any cases relating to the interpretation of or concerning Section 24 of the Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act, 2013. The Secretary General will urgently communicate this order to the Registrar General of every High Court so that our request is complied with. 13. Insofar as cases pending in this Court are concerned, we request the concerned Benches dealing with similar matters to defer the hearing until a decision is rendered one way or the other on the issue whether the matter should be referred to larger Bench or not. Apart from anything else, deferring the consideration would avoid inconvenience to the litigating parties, whether it is the State or individuals. 14. Delay condoned in SLPs. 15. Issue notice on SLPs returnable on 7th March, 2018. Dasti.
