1986 Date of Judgment:1991-08-26 Reported As: 1991 SCMR 1912 Result: Leave refused Judgment ORDER JAVID IQBAL, J: --This petition for leave to appeal is directed against order of the Lahore High Court Lahore dated 21st May, 1986 whereby civil revision of the petitioner was dismissed. Briefly the facts are that land belonging to the petitioner was acquired by L.DA. Under Garden Town Scheme and in 1977 the petitioner was given plots in lieu of the land taken from him alongwith the direction that he be given compensation for superstructure on the basis of the estimate prepared by the Engineering Department. Plots were given in lieu of-the land to the petitioner but as regards compensation, the Director-General L.D.A. Modified his order in 1979 to the effect that the petitioner be paid compensation in accordance with the award given by Land Acquisition Collector. The petitioner challenged the modification of the order respecting compensation by filing a civil suit which was dismissed. Subsequently his appeal and revision were also dismissed. Hence the present petition. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the order of the Director-General passed regarding the method of determining compensation in 1977 could not be modified by him in 1979. Learned Judge of the High Court has attended to this aspect of the matter correctly. So far as the factual positron is concerned the impugned order calls for no interference. Leave is accordingly refused.
