1. ' NASIM HASAN SHAH, J. ---All the above-mentioned appeals arise out of the same impugned judgment dated 7-6-1987 of the Lahore High Court.
2. ' The brief background of these appeals is that the appellant (Province of the Punjab) challenged the judgment and decree of the Senior Civil Judge, Bahawalpur dated 1-11-1974 whereby the latter had modified the award made by the Collector, Bahawalpur dated 10-9-1971, by filing appeals before the Lahore High Court. The said appeals were, however, dismissed by a Division Bench of the Lahore High Court (Bahawalpur Bench), Bahawalpur vide judgment dated 7-6-1987. Hence these appeals, by leave of this Court.
3. ' This Court, while granting leave to appeal, observed, inter alia, that the points raised in this petition were also involved in Civil Appeals Nos.18 to 22 of 1988. These appeals were heard on 28-5-1991 and this Court has upheld the findings of the High Court in so far as the amount of quantum of compensation found payable to the land owners is concerned. The present appeals, which are directed against the same judgment of the High Court, therefore, are also dismissed for the reasons given while disposing of Civil Appeals Nos.18 to 22 of 1988.
