3. The main contention on behalf of the Decree Holder is that the land having been acquired for the road by the Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike, compensation amount has not been properly paid. Sri.S.N.Prashanth Chandra, learned counsel for the BBMP has filed a memo signed by the Executive Engineer, Malleshwaram Division, Bengaluru West City Corporation and also by Sri.S.N.Prashanth Chandra along with the sketch showing the acquisition of the property with coloration.
4. An enquiry needs to be held by the Executing Court based on the sketch filed by the Decree Holder as well as the Judgment Debtor and based on such enquiry, if compensation is still payable by the BBMP for the acquired land of the Decree Holder for the purpose of Road, necessarily execution petition has to continue for recovery of the compensation amount.
