For the Respondents: GP FOR ASSIGNMENT The Court Made the Following : COMMON ORDER: Heard the counsel for the parties. The learned single Judge dismissed the appellants’ writ petitions on the ground that the appellants are claiming title through one Orsu Venkata Ramulu, who had filed Writ Petition No.30367 of 1997 before this Court, questioning the alleged notice issued against him under Section 7 of Land Encroachment Act. The said writ petition was dismissed. Thereafter, O.S.No.1158 of 2000 was filed before the V Senior Civil Judge, City Civil Court, Hyderabad, against one Sheshu Babu and others by the petitioners’ vendor. An Interlocutory Application in the above suit was also filed for temporary injunction, which was dismissed by the trial Court on the ground that Survey No.129/104 is not in existence. It is stated that revenue officials thereafter filed L.G.C.No.87 of 1998 against P.Shesu Babu and others, for their eviction from Survey No.129/76 and the same is pending. The learned single Judge dismissed the appellants’ writ petitions on the ground that since the writ petition of Orsu Venkata Ramulu was dismissed, the claims of the petitioners that they purchased property from the said Orsu Venkata Ramulu, or in possession of the same, cannot be adjudicated in a summary manner by this Court, in exercise of its writ jurisdiction, and thus, while reserving the liberty to the petitioners to move the appropriate Court seeking necessary declaration of their title, dismissed the writ petition. The learned counsel for the appellants submits that instead of directing the petitioners to approach the Civil Court, liberty be given to them to approach Special Court under A.P.Land Grabbing (Prohibition) Act, 1982, to enable them to get impleaded in the said proceedings. Appellants in fact are claiming title to the land in Survey No.129/104. L.G.C.No.87 of 1998 is for eviction of Sheshu Babu and others from Survey No.129/76. We cannot accept this submission made on behalf of the appellants that liberty may be reserved to them to approach and seek their impleadment in particular proceedings. As a matter of fact, as a result of dismissal of the writ petitions, it is always open for the appellants to approach whichever Court or Authority, they feel appropriate, for establishing their title to the land in question. Writ Appeals are accordingly dismissed. __________________________ (DEVINDER GUPTA, C.J.) ______________ (G.ROHINI, J) 28th June, 2004. pan/nmr To 1.
