HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V. ESWARAIAH WRIT PETITION No. 111 of 2009 O R D E R: It is the case of the petitioner that he has purchased the land in an extent of Ac.2.25 cents in Survey No. 133/2A situated at Kamepally Village, Sonthamaguluru Mandal, Prakasam District, vide sale deed dated 6th January 1982. It is his further case that the disputes between the family members were settled and it has been declared that the petitioner is the owner of the land in question. While so, the Tahasildar, Sonthamaguluru Mandal, the 3rd respondent herein, issued proceedings in R.C.No. B/52/2005, dated 04.06.2007, asking the petitioner to vacate the said land on the ground that the same is an assigned land. Aggrieved by the said order, the petitioner preferred an appeal in Rc.D/1355/2007 before the Revenue Divisional Officer, Ongole, Prakasam District, the 2nd respondent herein, and the same is still pending. In the meantime, he made a representation to the 3rd respondent stating that he is the bona fide purchaser of the said land, but however, the 3rd respondent is trying to dispossess him from the said land. Hence, he filed Writ Petition No. 23581 of 2007, which was disposed of by this Court, on 06.11.2007, directing the Appellate Authority to consider and dispose of the appeal filed by the petitioner. In spite of the said direction, the appeal has not been disposed of. It is further stated that the petitioner raised the crop in the said land and it is ripe for harvesting, but still, the 3rd respondent is trying to dispossess the petitioner from the land. Therefore, the petitioner again approached this Court seeking to issue a writ of mandamus, declaring the action of the 3rd respondent in trying to dispossess him from the said land, pending disposal of the appeal, as illegal. I have perused the material available on record. A perusal of the order, dated 06.11.2007, passed by this Court in Writ Petition No. 23581 of 2007 shows that the petitioner filed the said writ petition to declare the action of the Revenue Divisional Officer, Ongole, Prakasam District in not deciding the Application filed for grant of stay in the pending appeal Rc.D/1355 of 2007 filed on 10.08.2007 as illegal and the said writ petition was disposed of by an order dated 06.11.2007, directing the Revenue Divisional Officer to consider and dispose of the appeal filed against the order dated 04.06.2007 passed by the 3rd respondent in proceedings Rc.B/52/2005 and pending disposal of the appeal, the respondents were directed not to dispossess the petitioner from the land admeasuring Ac.0.37 cents in Survey No. 113/21 and Ac.0.74 cents in Survey No. 113/2M and the said order is subsisting. Therefore, I do not see any justification on the part of the petitioner in filing the present writ petition for the self same relief. The relief granted by this Court in the said writ petition protects the interests of the petitioner, pending appeal. If the respondents fail to comply with the said order, it is always open for the petitioner to initiate proceedings under the Contempt of Courts Act, 1971. With the said observation, the writ petition is dismissed. No costs. ---------------------------- (V. ESWARAIAH, J) 7th January 2009 ksld
