    Case Summary: LAC Appeal No. 31/2019 - Rangegowda v. Special LAO HRP-2, Hassan Court Decision: The appellate court partially allowed the appeal, modifying the lower court's judgment. Land compensation for property acquired for the Yagachi Reservoir Project was enhanced from Rs. 5,000 per gunta to Rs. 1,00,000 per gunta, with statutory benefits including solatium and additional market value. Previously paid compensation will be deducted from the total award. Key Reasoning: Applying principles of parity established by Supreme Court precedents, the court found that similarly situated lands in the same village acquired for identical purposes should receive equal compensation. Since comparable land in the same notification had been awarded Rs. 1,00,000 per gunta, discriminating between adjacent claimants would be unjust.
