It is argued by the learned AGP that the Learned Trial Court has failed to appreciate that there was no satisfactory evidence on record to enhance of the compensation. The Special Land Acquisition Officer had rightly considered and had awarded amount as per market price. It was admitted that the land of the Claimant was not bagayat land and was jirayat land till the amount is enhanced. This Court finds that the Learned Trial Court had rightly considered the evidence and had come to the conclusion that compensation needs to be enhanced. 5.

This Court does not find any reason to interfere with the judgment and award consequently, the First Appeal stands dismissed. No order as to costs.

6.

The pending Civil Applications, if any, also stand disposed of. (KISHORE C. SANT, J.)
