The short question that arises in this revision petition is as to whether the application filed before the Court below for a direction to make a reference was within the period of limitation. It arises in this way:The land Survey number 16/6 of Byyappanahalli was acquired and an award passed on the 5th of February 1964 end this was approved by the Deputy Commissioner on the 24th of July 1964. It is not disputed that one Ramaiah who was the petitioner before the Court below was one of the persons interested in the award.

The learned trial Judge overruling that objection has issued a direction to the Land Acquisition Officer to make a reference.2. In this revision petition it is strenuousl...
