H.P. Housing Board vs Sharda Devi And Ors.

Supreme Court Of India|30 October, 1998

JUDGMENT / ORDER

1. Leave granted.
2. Heard learned counsel for the parties.
3. We do not think that any case is made out for interference with the judgment under appeals. However, we consider it necessary that the word "court" occurring in the following sentence in para 9 of the judgment of this Court in Ram Piari v. Land Acquisition Collector, Solan, clarification: "The development authority is directed to recover the amount and pay the amount so recovered at the rate determined by the court to the respective landowners."
4. While agreeing with the High Court that the word "court" occurring in the above sentence means "District Court", we make it clear that the amount payable by the appellant to the respective landowners is the amount as awarded by the District Judge/Court.
5. The appeals are accordingly disposed of with no order as to costs.
Disclaimer: Above Judgment displayed here are taken straight from the court; Vakilsearch has no ownership interest in, reservation over, or other connection to them.
