ORDER

1. Permission to file Special Leave Petition(s) is granted.

2. Applications for substitution are allowed subject to all just exceptions by condoning the delay and setting aside abatement, if any.

3. Delay condoned in filing and refiling the Special Leave Petitions.

4. Applications for impleadment/intervention are allowed.

5. Leave granted in all the Special Leave Petitions.

6. The judgments and orders passed by the High Court of Punjab and Haryana in the land acquisition appeals filed before it by the claimants are under challenge before this Court.

7. The land acquired (subject matter of the present appeals) is covered by three Notifications issued under Section 4 of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894. The first notification is dated 1st May, 2006 and the villages covered therein are villages Baroli, Sihi, Murtezapur, Pehladpur, Bhatola. The second notification. The second notification is dated 7th February, 2008 and the villages covered therein are Villages Bhatola, Murtezpur, Fajjupur, Neemka, Faridpur and Baroli. The third notification is dated 14th August, 2008 covering villages therein are villages Murtezpur, Neemka, Faizpur, Bhatola, Badoli, Pehladpur, Budhena, Kherikhurd, Faridpur, Kheerikalan, Baselwa, Riwazpur, Badshahpur, Palwali, Wazirpur, Mawai, Bhupani.

8. Before the Reference Court as well as before the High Court the claimants had sought to sustain their claims for enhanced compensation on the basis of a large number of documents some of which find a mention in the impugned order(s) of the High Court. However, a reading of the order(s) of the High Court indicates that apart from making a reference to the documents relied upon by the claimants there is no discussion or finding with regard to the relevance or reliability of the same so as to sustain or deny the claim of higher compensation. Instead, what the High Court appears to have done is to take note of its earlier judgment and order dated 3rd September, 2014 passed in the case of one Sohanlal vs. State of Haryana1 which pertains to villages Sotai, Nawada, Tigaon, Mujeri, Machgar, Chandawali. The acquisition Notification in the said case is dated 31st July, 2006 and the acquisition was made by HSIICL for development of an Industrial Model Township. The purpose of acquisition of the land by means of the three Notifications, referred to above (subject matter of the present appeals), was for development of residential and commercial areas.

<span id="page-14-0"></span>9. The High Court, thereafter, recorded the finding that the land involved in the case of Sohanlal (supra) was in close proximity to the land covered by the Notification dated 1st May, 2006 and, on that basis, awarded compensation at the same rate as awarded in Sohanlal (supra). Insofar as the land acquired by Notifications dated 7th February, 2008 and 14th August, 2008 are concerned, the learned judge of the High Court found that the value of the land covered by the two Notifications

is relatable to the earlier acquisition made for the purpose mentioned in the Notification dated 1st May, 2006. In view of the time lag between the date of issuance of the Notifications the High Court thought it proper to enhance the compensation awarded in the first case (i.e. Notification dated 7 th February, 2008) by 20% per annum over and above what was awarded for the land acquired by Notification dated 1st May, 2006. A similar exercise was followed in respect of the land covered by the Notification dated 14th August, 2008. In doing so, the High Court, it appears, was oblivious of the fact that its order had, in fact, resulted in reduction of the compensation awarded by the learned Reference Court in case of the landowners in some of the villages. No discussion with regard to any of the exemplars or the evidence relied upon in support of the claim of higher compensation appears to be made by the High Court.

10. In the aforesaid circumstances, we cannot sustain the order(s) of the High Court. Each of the cases, in fact, will have to be reconsidered by the High Court on its own merits and such consideration must necessarily be in the light of the evidence adduced by both parties before it. We, therefore, request the High Court to act accordingly and re-do the exercise.

11. Before parting, we would like to say that clubbing of cases of different villages for disposal by one common judgment has the potential, as has been demonstrated in the present case, of overlooking the peculiar features of each case and the evidence adduced with regard to the location, condition, value, etc. of the land involved. The anxiety of any Court for efficacious disposal of cases pending before it is understandable but, at the same time, such anxiety must not be allowed to overrule the need of a fair and comprehensive consideration of the materials on record and recording of adequate reasons for accepting or discarding the evidence adduced. We hope and trust that the High Court of Punjab and Haryana in deciding the future litigations involving land acquisition compensation will keep the above principle in mind.

12. With the aforesaid observations and directions, all the appeals are allowed. The impugned judgments and orders of the High Court are set aside and the matters are remanded to the High Court for fresh disposal in accordance with the directions and observations contained in the present order. The High Court is requested to decide the matters as expeditiously as its business would permit.
