Court itself in danger of facing legal action

March 21, 2011

Mangalore, March 21: The Assistant Commissioner's (AC) court itself here on Monday faced the risk of legal action for neglecting the verdict of 2nd Additional Senior Civil Court, which had asked the former to provide increased compensation to families displaced from Malavoor village during the process of land acquisition for Mangalore Airport in Bajpe in 1999.



The government had distributed the minimum compensation of Rs 1,100 for one cent of land for the displaced people. However, eight among the land losers, identified as Cheyyabba, Beefathima, Badruddin, Hasanabba, Abdul Khader, Sadu Shetty, Rajeeva Shetty and Ahmed Beary, had appealed to the court demanding just compensation.



After prolonged proceedings, the Civil Court has ordered the AC court, which is responsible for the distribution of compensation in this issue, to increase the compensation to Rs 7240 for one cent of land.



When the AC Court failed to meet this demand, the petitioners had once again appealed to the Civil Court, which in turn on February 28 ordered officials to seize the AC court before March 26 if it fails to meet the demand. However, when the eight Amins of Civil Court on Monday reached AC Court to execute the order five days prior to the deadline, Assistant Commissioner Prabhuling Kavalkatti requested them to grant a week's time to study the issue thoroughly.



Later, speaking to media persons Kavalkatti said that about Rs 40 lakh is necessary to act upon the order of civil court, which has raised the compensation amount for one cent from Rs 1100 to Rs 7240. He said that he will immediately write a letter to the state government briefing the development and urging to release fund.
