THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE R.SUBHASH REDDY CONTEMPT CASE No.85 of 2011 ORDER: This matter was listed on 09.03.2011, on which date, as there was no representation for the petitioner, it was adjourned. Even today also, there is no representation for the petitioner. This Contempt Case is filed alleging that the respondents have violated the directions issued by this Court in order, dated 05.12.2009 passed in Writ Petition No.26572 of 2009. Petitioner claims title and possession over the land of an extent of Acs.5.00 cents covered by Survey No.51/10 situated at Manneguda Village, Pudur Mandal, Ranga Reddy District. Such assignment granted to the petitioner was cancelled and against such cancellation, the petitioner carried the matter in appeal before the Revenue Divisional Officer, Ranga Reddy but it was dismissed. Further, he has filed revision before the first respondent – Joint Collector, Ranga Reddy District. During pendency of the revision, he approached this Court by filing Writ Petition No.26572 of 2009. This Court at the stage of admission, by order, dated 05.12.2009, disposed of the Writ Petition directing the respondents to maintain status quo with regard to possession. In this Contempt Case, it is the allegation of the petitioner that in spite of the orders of status quo, the respondents have willfully and deliberately violated the same. The Tahsildar, Pudur Mandal filed a detailed counter-affidavit in the matter. In the counter-affidavit, while denying various allegations made by the petitioner, it is categorically stated that after resumption orders were passed, possession of the land in question was taken in 1999. Thereafter, the land was allotted under Indiramma Housing Scheme to the houseless poor persons on 29.09.2007 itself and patta certificates were also issued. It is also stated that as the possession was taken, the land in question was assigned to third parties, as such, there is no violation of the orders passed by this Court. It is to be noticed that though the counter-affidavit is filed in March, 2011, there is no denial of such averments by the petitioner by way of reply. It is also to be noticed that though this Court passed the order of status quo on 05.12.2009, by which date, the land in question was already resumed and assigned to the third parties for the purpose of house-sites and patta certificates were issued to the beneficiaries, as evident from the counter-affidavit. In view of the same, it cannot be said that the respondents have willfully and deliberately violated the directions of this Court attracting the provisions of the Contempt of Courts Act, 1971. The Contempt Case is devoid of merit and it is accordingly dismissed. _______________________ R.SUBHASH REDDY, J 30th JUNE, 2011. kvni
