THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE R.SUBHASH REDDY CONTEMPT CASE Nos.1611 of 2009 and 102 of 2011 COMMON ORDER: These Contempt Cases are filed alleging violation of the directions issued by this Court in order, dated 14.10.2009 passed in WPMP.No.28612 of 2009 in Writ Petition No.22032 of 2009. This Court in the aforesaid order, directed the Tahsildar, Piler, Chittoor District, to consider their representation for issuance of pattas insofar as the sites, which they claim that they are in possession and further, directed the Revenue Divisional Officer, Madanapalle, Chittoor District, to conduct a detailed enquiry into the allegation made by the petitioners that their houses were demolished without following due process of law. In these Contempt Cases, the allegation of the petitioners is that in spite of such directions, the respondents have neither considered their representation nor sent any report. A detailed counter-affidavit is filed by the respondents. In the counter-affidavit, it is stated that the respondents have considered the representation of the petitioners and rejected the same opining that in view of location and requirement of the said piece of land for public purpose, it is not feasible for grant of pattas. At the same time, a report was sent to this Court through the Registrar (Judicial) and also to the Office of the Government Pleader for Revenue. The report was sent as early as on 30.11.2009 but it appears that the same is retained in the Office of the Government Pleaders. When the matter is taken up today, learned Assistant Government Pleader for Revenue appearing for the respondents produced before this Court a set of papers including report, dated 30.11.2009, which was sent by the Revenue Divisional Officer, Madanapalle, who elaborately dealt with the matter pursuant to the directions of this Court and opined that the Tahsildar has followed due procedure prescribed under the Andhra Pradesh Land Encroachment Act, 1905 and passed orders for eviction of the petitioners. Although it is contended by the learned counsel for the petitioners that eviction procedure was not in conformity with law, the same cannot be gone into in the present Contempt Case. This Court is convinced that the respondents have complied the directions of this Court by submitting report, dated 30.11.2009 and also by considering the representation of the petitioners. In that view of the matter, I do not find any contemptuous action on the part of the respondents to proceed further under the Contempt of Courts Act, 1971. The Contempt Cases are accordingly dismissed. Post the Writ Petition for final hearing in the second week of September, 2011. ______________________ R.SUBHASH REDDY, J 11th JULY, 2011. kvni
