    Summary of FA/90/2024 The High Court of Bombay at Aurangabad dismissed the Union of India's appeals challenging a Reference Court's award for land acquisition in Dhekanmoha village for a railway project. The court upheld the Reference Court's enhanced compensation rates (Rs. 3750/- per bigha for Jirayat land, Rs. 5625/- for irrigated land) based on compatible sale deed evidence, finding the rates reasonable and within legal limits under Maharashtra's Government Resolution. The court also upheld statutory benefits under Section 23(1-A) of the Land Acquisition Act, directing immediate disbursement of deposited amounts with accrued interest to the claimants.
