Bengalimal, Through His L.Rs. and anr. Vs. Collector

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: May-05-2009

Reported in: 2009(3)AWC2596

Pankaj Mithal, J.1. This is an appeal by the claimants under Section 54 of the Land Acquisition Act (hereinafter referred to as an Act) for enhancement of compensation.2. Some land for establishing a 220 K.V. Sub-station and construction of staff quarters for the Hydel department of village Kakretha in district Agra was acquired by the State of U.P. The preliminary notification proposing to acquire the land was issued on 1.3.1975 and was followed by a declaration under Section 6 of the Act on 15.6.1975. The S.L.A.O. offered market value of the acquired land @ 3.50 per sq. yard as per award dated 14.12.1977. The award was not acceptable to the claimants and, therefore, they preferred a reference under Section 18 of the Act which came to be registered as L.A.R. No. 70 of 1978, Bengalimal and Anr. v. Collector Agra and Anr.. The reference was in respect of three plots of the claimants, i.e., plot No. 339/1 area 1 bigha 6 biswa, 339/2 area 1 bigha 5 biswa and plot No. 341 area 1 bigha 19 b...

i.C.i.C.i. Lombard General Insurance Co. Ltd. Vs. Rakesh and anr.

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: May-05-2009

Reported in: 2009(3)AWC2576

Amitava Lala, J.1. The controversy in this case is as to whether the Court of Workmen's Compensation, having jurisdiction over the area where the workman or his dependent ordinarily resides, can pass an order awarding compensation without giving any notice to the Commissioner, within whose jurisdiction the accident took place, in the manner prescribed by the Central Government or the State Government concerned. Secondly, when the medical board awarded 50% permanent disability, awarding of compensation to the injured treating it as 100% disability is appropriate or not.2. Without going into the root of controversy with regard to the first issue, we make it clear that if we decide the question for remanding the matter back to the Commissioner with certain directions for the purpose of appropriate adjudication then the question of merit as agitated herein will be heard by the Commissioner on the basis of the submissions to be made by the parties therein. We have no occasion to go into suc...

Reported in: 2009(4)AWC4090

Amitava Lala, J.1. This appeal has been preferred by the insurance company on the ground of quantum in spite of rejection of application under Section 170 of the Motor Vehicles Act, 1988 which, according to us, is not maintainable in view of the judgment of this Court in Oriental Insurance Company Limited v. Smt. Manju and Ors. : 2007 (4) ADJ 101 : 2007 (2) ACCD 732 (All) : 2007 (2) AWC 1927, following three Judges' Bench judgment of the Supreme Court in National Insurance Co. Ltd., Chandigarh v.

Rajes Kumar, J.1. By means of present petition, the petitioners are challenging the order dated 17th March, 1999 passed by the Deputy Director of Consolidation, Ghaziabad by which he has rejected the application of the petitioners dated 3.7.1998 under Section 42A read with Section 52 of the Uttar Pradesh Consolidation of Holdings Act, 1953 (hereinafter referred to as the 'Act').2. The brief facts giving rise to the present writ petition are that in a consolidation proceeding held in village Mahiuddinpur Mainapur, Pargana Jalalabad, Tehsil and District, Ghaziabad chaks were allotted. The proceeding in respect of the allotment of the chak had become final. However, it is not clear that up to what stage the same had become final but there is no dispute in this regard in the present petition.

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: May-04-2009

Reported in: 2009(3)AWC2466

ORDERTarun Agarwala, J.1. The suit was decreed and the property was partitioned equally between the plaintiff and the defendant. While decreeing the suit, the Court directed that a preliminary decree be drawn, against which, the defendant preferred an appeal which was dismissed in default and a restoration application has been filed which is pending. In the meanwhile, an application was filed before the trial court to the effect that an Amin's report be called to ascertain the share of the parties as per the decree. The Amin submitted a report defining the shares of the property. An objection was filed by the judgment debtor which has been rejected by the impugned order and the trial court directed that a final decree be prepared. The defendant, being aggrieved has filed the present writ petition.2. In my opinion, the writ petition is not maintainable. The order of the trial court partakes the nature of a decree as defined under Section 2(2) of the C.P.C. In S. Satnam Singh and Ors. v....
