After his death, petitioner is in possession. In 1985, she applied Tahsildar for assignment. When the same was not considered, she filed writ petition being W.P.No.19569 of 1998. During pendency of writ petition, she was assigned land. Therefore, the writ petition was closed. Petitioner alleges that even though there was assigned land, respondent is trying to evict her without following due process of law. Therefore, she filed instant writ petition seeking a writ of Mandamus for declaration and direction. The writ petition was admitted by this Court on 12.09.2002. Respondent has not filed counter even after lapse of seven years. Therefore, instead of keeping writ petition pending, the writ petition is disposed of observing that if petitioner was assigned land as alleged by her and if she is cultivating the same, respondent cannot evict her without following due process of law and without cancelling assignment. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of. There shall be no order as to costs. _______________ (V.V.S.RAO, J) 09.09.2009 pln
