The case of the petitioners is that the petitioners are the absolute owners of the subject lands mentioned in the affidavit. The petitioners' land were acquired by the National Highways for the purpose of laying four way road . After completing the necessary formalities, the second respondent passed award dated 25.02.2022. Challenging the deduction of development charges in the said award, the petitioners have filed the present writ petition before this Court seeking to quash the same. 4. The learned counsel for the petitioners submitted that the second respondent has passed the impugned award on 31.10.2021. But they released the compensation amount to the petitioners only on 25.02.2022 after deducting the development charges, which is unfair and there is no provision available for deducting the development charges from the award. The act of the respondents 2 & 3 is against the principles of natural justice. But they released the compensation amount to the petitioners only on 25.02.2022 after deducting the development charges, which is unfair and there is no provision available for deducting the development charges from the award. The act of the respondents 2 & 3 is against the principles of natural justice. Hence, the learned counsel prays to quash the impugned awards and allow these writ petitions. 5. The learned Government Advocate submitted that admittedly the petitioners' lands were acquired for public purpose and award was passed on 31.10.2021 and the compensation amount was also deposited to petitioners account. If the petitioners are aggrieved with the compensation, they have to file appeal before the appellate authority. Instead of doing that, the petitioner has come up before this Court, which is not sustainable one. The respondents have rightly passed the impugned order and therefore, this Court does not warrant any interference. 6. Heard the learned counsel for both sides and perused the materials available on record. 7. The facts of the case are not in dispute. Admittedly, the petitioners' agriculture lands were acquired for public purpose. After following due process of law, the impugned award was passed on 31.10.2021 and the compensation amount has also been released in favour of the petitioners. From the above, it is evident that the acquisition proceedings have been completed and the subject land was taken over by the Government and the disputed lands have been mutated and stands in the name of the 3rd respondent herein. If the petitioners feel aggrieved by the final award, the same can be challenged by the petitioners before the appropriate forum. This Court finds no merit in the petition and also this Court cannot interfere with the impugned order passed by the respondents. 8. With the above observation, these writ petitions are dismissed. No costs. However, liberty is granted to the petitioners to work out their remedy in the manner known to law.
