ORDER: Pursuant to the Form-I notice issued at the admission of this contempt case on 8.10.2010, the respondents are present and their future presence is dispensed with. This contempt case is filed alleging violation of the order of this Court dt. 14.7.2009 in W.P.No. 20338 of 2008 whereby this Court disposed of the writ petition on the basis of the statement in the counter affidavit of the 3rd respondent to the effect that the respondents are wiling to hand over the site assigned to the petitioner for construction of a house. It is alleged in the affidavit filed in support of the contempt case that the respondents have not implemented the court order dt. 14.7.2009 and despite the averment in the counter affidavit filed in the writ petition, are not handing over the site to the petitioner as promised. Each of the respondents filed counter affidavits. The affidavit of the 1st respondent/District Collector states inter alia that after the order of this Court disposing of the writ petition on recording the undertaking on behalf of the respondents, a memo was issued on 17.8.2009 to the Town Surveyor, Ongole; Mandal Revenue Officer, Ongole; and the Village Revenue Officer, Ongole to hand over possession of the site to the petitioner Smt. Rajaneedi Sarada marking a copy to the petitioner, but when possession was sought to be handed over, the petitioner refused to take possession of the site. Another notice was sent to the petitioner on 6.11.2010 requesting her to take possession of the site on 9.11.2010. In response to this notice, the petitioner attended the office of the 1st respondent in the presence of the District Revenue Officer, Ongole and orally stated that the possession of house sites allotted to 52 beneficiaries in S.No. 63/1 of Mamidipalem village must be handed over to all the 52 beneficiaries including the petitioner and till then she is not going to take possession of the house site. It is further stated in the counter that 52 artistes of Sri.Thyagaraja Sangeetha Kalakurula Sangham of Ongole were given house sites in S.No. 63/1 of Mamidipalem village of Ongole Mandal on 28.4.1989 including the petitioner and the petitioner was allotted plot No. 65 measuring an extent of Ac. 0.03 cents vide DK No. 57A/1398F dt. 28.4.1989 and possession already delivered to the other allottees on 15.11.1992 by the then Town Surveyor and Mandal Revenue Officer. However since the local Vaddera caste people protested to the granting house site pattas to the petitioner and others, the assignees have not entered into the plots upto the year 2008. However, in view of the order of this Court, relevant steps have been taken to hand over possession of the plot to the petitioner and that the plots assigned to the other 51 beneficiaries were resumed by Proceedings dt. 19.9.2009, after following the due procedure. It is reiterated in the counter of the 1st respondent that despite steps taken by the answering respondents, the petitioner failed to take possession of the site. The learned Counsel for the petitioner states that no order to hand over possession of the site has been served on the petitioner. This is denied by the respondents. A copy of the notice dt. 6.11.2010 requesting the petitioner to take possession of the site in S.No. 63/1 of Mamidipalem village is directed to be served and has been served on the counsel for the petitioner today in the court and constitutes sufficient compliance with order of this Court in the writ petition. It is made clear that the respondents shall jointly and severally ensure that the petitioner is not obstructed in her possession and enjoyment of the site in question. The contempt case is dismissed. ___________________________ GODA RAGHURAM,J 19.11.2010. KRB. THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE GODA RAGHURAM CONTEMPT CASE No. 1461 of 2010. ORDER: Dt. 19.11.2010.
