By the present Application, Applicants/Appellants are seeking condonation of 1940 days delay in filing Appeal under Section 54 of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894. 2.

However, since the claim pertains to the acquisition of land, delay is condoned in the interest of justice, subject to condition that the Appellants will not be entitled for interest on the amount of compensation i.e. market value and statutory benefits for the period of delay. The condition imposed takes care of interest of the Respondent No.3.
