THESE PETITIONS, COMING ON FOR FINAL HEARING, THIS DAY, ORDER WAS MADE THEREIN AS UNDER: CORAM: HON'BLE MR JUSTICE SACHIN SHANKAR MAGADUM ORAL ORDER Pursuant to directions issued by this Court in these petitions dated 26.11.2012, though onus was on the State Government to resolve the conflicting claims of the individual site purchasers and the National Housing Co- operative Society, these petitions are filed questioning the preliminary notification and final notification. 2. It appears the individual allottees and the Society acting in terms of the order dated 26.11.2012 - 10 - NC: 2025:KHC:8387 WP No. 13752 of 2011 AND CONNECTED MATTERS have arrived at a amicable settlement and therefore, an application is filed under Order 23 Rule 3 of CPC to record settlement arrived at between petitioners and contesting respondents - National Housing Co-operative Society. The petitioners who are the site owners have entered into settlement with the Society thereby agreeing to compensate the society at the rate of Rs.175/- per sq.ft. Accordingly, the respondent-Society has agreed to the said terms which is preceded by a resolution passed in the General Body Meeting conducted on 06.10.2024. This memorandum of settlement is produced and marked at document No.1. 3. The officials of the respondent-Society are present before this Court. Upon a thorough examination of the joint compromise petition submitted under Order 23 Rule 3 of CPC, this Court finds that the dispute is best resolved through an amicable settlement. The petitioners, who are individual site owners, purchased the land from the original owners and have constructed buildings on it. - 11 - NC: 2025:KHC:8387 WP No. 13752 of 2011 AND CONNECTED MATTERS Meanwhile, the State had acquired the same property to facilitate its allotment by the Society to its members. 4. Although the acquisition proceedings have been concluded, the fact remains that constructions have already been erected on the acquired land. Considering this, the Court finds the compromise reached by the parties to be lawful. The compromise petition is accordingly admitted on record. Upon inquiry, none of the parties have raised concerns regarding duress, coercion, or undue influence. Since the compromise petition is found to be lawful, the writ petitions are disposed of in terms of the joint compromise petition. Pending interlocutory applications, if any, do not survive for consideration and stand disposed of. SD/- (SACHIN SHANKAR MAGADUM) JUDGE CA List No.: 2 Sl No.: 17
