Consequently, CA, if any, does not survive and stands disposed of accordingly. Interim relief, if any, stands vacated. However, it is clarified that dismissal of present appeal shall not be construed that the Court has decided any legal issue involved in the subject matter of present appeal and therefore, the decision of present appeal shall not be treated as precedent for deciding any legal issue. Registry is directed to return back the R & P, if any, to the concerned Court forthwith. The learned concerned Court is directed to disburse the amount of compensation, if any, deposited by the Government after deducting Court fee to the claimant/s after due verification and identification along with interest and after verifying his right to claim the compensation.
