It is brought to my notice by the learned Government Pleader appearing for respondents that having considered identical issues a Division Bench of this Court rejected similar prayers in a batch of writ petitions. Learned counsel appearing for the petitioners does not dispute the fact that the issue involved in this writ petition is squarely covered by the decision of Division Bench. Accordingly, the writ petition is dismissed. However, it is made clear that the respondents shall not disturb the agriculture activities in the lands in question without following due process of law. No costs. ___________​_ G.ROHINI,J Dated: 21-09-2006 KLP
