THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.ESWARAIAH WRIT PETITION No.634 of 2008 Between: Smt.Bhogadhi Venkateswaramma. .. PETITIONER and The Tahsildar and another. .. RESPONDENTS THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.ESWARAIAH WRIT PETITION No.634 of 2008 ORDER: The petitioner questions the order of the Tahsildhar, Nagayalanka Mandal, Krishna District-1st respondent in Rc.No.B44/2007, dated 11-08-2007, in resuming the land admeasuring Ac.5-00 cents in R.S.No.1142 situated at Bhavadevarapalli Village, Nagayalanka Mandal, Krishna District, on the ground that the said land was originally assigned in favour of P.Krishnaiah, but the same has been alienated in favour of the petitioner in contravention of Sub-Section (2) of Section 3 of A.P.Assigned Lands (Prohibition of Transfers) Act, 1977 (for short “the Act”). Admittedly, against the resumption order passed under Section 4(1)(a) of the Act, an appeal lies to the Revenue Divisional Officer under Section 4-A (1) of the Act. However, the petitioner filed an appeal on 22-01-2008 i.e., after filing the writ petition. I am not inclined to express any opinion as to whether the appeal has been filed within the prescribed time or not. Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case, writ petition is dismissed with liberty to pursue the remedy of appeal said to have been filed before the Revenue Divisional Officer, Machilipatnam, Krishna District. There shall be no order as to costs. ___________ 24-01-2008 Prv
