Heard Shri Sachin Awana, learned counsel, who has appeared through video conferencing on behalf of the petitioners and Shri Ambrish Shukla, learned Additional Chief Standing Counsel for State-respondents. 2. The instant writ petition has been preferred praying inter alia for the following relief:
"a. Issue a writ or direction in the nature of certiorari calling for the records and quash the compensation computations based on the obsolete circle rate, i.e. 70,00,000/- per Sq. Meter of Petitioner no. 1 to 21. b. Issue a writ or direction in the nature of mandamus commanding the Respondents to re-compute the compensation payable to each Petitioner by applying the revised circle rate of ₹80,00,000/- per hectare effective from 31.10.2022, and to disburse the resultant amounts along with all applicable statutory benefits."
3. At the very outset, learned Standing Counsel informed to the Court that for redressal of grievance of tenure holders, claiming certain right/title over their land, the State Government had issued detailed Government Order dated 12.05.2016, which provides that in case the claimant files claim supported with requisite documents, the same would be considered by the District Level Committee for ensuring adequate compensation in the light of Act 2013. He submits that once the efficacious remedy is available to the petitioners, the matter should be relegated to the District Level Committee, Versus Counsel for Petitioner(s) : Anupam Dubey, Saurabh Kesarwani Counsel for Respondent(s) : C.S.C. Aman Singh And 20 Others .....Petitioner(s) State Of U.P. And 3 Others .....Respondent(s)
which may examine the claim of petitioners within a reasonable time and submit its report to the Chairman/District Magistrate, who may accord adequate compensation accordingly. 4. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case and the relief prayed in the instant matter, we dispose of the instant petition with liberty to the petitioners to make fresh representation along with true attested copy of the instant order before District Level Committee constituted under the Government Order dated 12.05.2016 within two weeks. In the event, such representation is made, the District Level Committee shall consider the claim of the petitioners sand ensure that the proceeding shall be finalised expeditiously, preferably within twelve weeks, thereafter.
