Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the land bearing khasra no. 1036/3 admeasuring area 0.10 acre situated at Village Bodsara, Tahsil- Janjgir, District-Janjgir-Champa (C.G.) was of the petitioner, but due to playing fraud, the said land was recorded in the name of one Late Girdhari in revenue records. The aforesaid land bearing khasra no. 1036/3 admeasuring area 0.10 acre was acquired by the CSPDCL for construction of rail line and after acquisition proceedings, the award was passed, whereby assessed the compensation of Rs. 1,40,000/-. As the land bearing khasra no. 1036/3 was mutated in the name of Late Girdhari, therefore the award was passed for payment of compensation in favour of Late Girdhari son of Lagansai. After knowledge of mutation order dated 28.02.2011 whereby the aforesaid land was mutated in the name of Late Girdhari son of Lagansai, the petitioner filed an appeal before the Sub-Divisional Officer and vide order dated 28.05.2018, the S.D.O. has allowed the appeal and set-aside the mutation order dated 28.02.2011.On the basis of order of S.D.O. dated 28.05.2018, the aforesaid land bearing khasra no. 1036/3 has been mutated in the name of petitioner. On 10.01.2023, the petitioner filed an application before the respondent Collector for grant of compensation in respect of acquired land, but till date the respondent authorities have not granted single penny to the petitioner towards compensation in lieu of acquired land. Therefore, he prays for a direction to the respondent-authorities for grant of compensation amount in lieu of acquired land. 3 3. Learned counsel for respondents submits that in view of the limited prayer made by the learned counsel for petitioner seeking direction to respondents to consider the pending application towards payment of compensation, he is having no objection to the limited prayer and if the application of the petitioner is pending, it will be considered in accordance with law. 4. I have heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the material available on record. 5. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case instead of keeping this petition pending, I find it appropriate to dispose of the same at this stage directing the petitioner to file a fresh representation along with all relevant documents and copy of this order before the SDO (R ) Jangir within a period of 15 days from the date of receipt of copy of this order. In turn, the respondent No. 6 shall decide the representation of the petitioner after hearing all the concerned parties within a period of 6 months from the date of receipt of representation filed by the petitioner in accordance with law, subject to verification of all the documents. 6. With the aforesaid direction, the writ petition is disposed of. Sd/- (Arvind Kumar Verma) Judge Jyoti
