THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S.RAO WRIT PETITION No.13287 of 2002 July 05, 2010 Between: Pithani Satyanarayana @ Murthi, S/o.Pullaiah … Petitioner And The Sub-Collector, Bhadrachalam, Khammam District And others ... Respondents THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S.RAO WRIT PETITION No.13287 of 2002 ORDER: The petitioner in this writ petition is allegedly owner of the land admeasuring Acs.0.05 in S.No.20/P63 situated at Bhadrachalam in Khammam District. He is running a tea stall and pan shop in the premises for the last 10 years. He alleged that the respondents proposed to construct a Check Post in the land of petitioner and made attempts to demolish the structures without informing reasons and without giving any notice to him. He therefore filed instant writ petition seeking a writ of Mandamus for declaration and direction to respondents not to demolish the structures. The third respondent filed counter affidavit stating that the petitioner was asked several times orally to vacate the premises. This only shows that no formal notice was given to the petitioner to vacate the premises. After hearing the Counsel for petitioner and the Assistant Government Pleader for Revenue (Telangana Area), one thing becomes clear that the petitioner made constructions in the land belonging to Forest Department. It also becomes clear that the respondents did not give any notice to petitioner before initiating any action for constructing a Check Post in the premises of petitioner. Therefore, the writ petition is disposed of observing that unless and until proper notice is issued, as to why he should not be evicted from the said premises, the respondents cannot take any coercive action against the petitioner. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of. No costs. ________________ (V.V.S. RAO, J) July 05, 2010 YS
