ORDER

Leave granted.

2.Notification under Section 4(1) of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894 (for short, the Act ) was published on 24.3.1971. The Collector under Section 11 passed his award on July 10, 1971. Thereon, the appellant along with others sought and had reference to the Additional District Judge under Section 18. After further enhancement of the award under Section 26, the appellants had not carried the matter in appeal to the High Court under Section 54. Some other claimants filed RFA No. 1326/78 wherein the High Court had enhanced the compensation to Rs.135/- per sq. yd. Subsequently, after two years, the appellant had filed applications under Section 28A to the Land Acquisition Officer who in his award in L.C. case No.51/91 by order dated May 10, 1993 dismissed the application. On revision filed by the appellants in C.R. No.2659/93, the High Court of Punjab & Haryana by order dated September 21, 1993 dismissed the petition. Thus this appeal by special leave.

3. The only question is : whether the Land Acquisition Officer was right in refusing to award the compensation to the appellants @ Rs.135/- per sq.yd. pursuant to the order passed by the High Court in RFA No.13
