THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V. NAGARJUNA REDDY WRIT PETITION No. 16837 of 2007 Dated: 23.10.2007 Between: Mrs. Inuganti Ramatulasamma & another. … Petitioners AND The District Collector, East Godavari District, Kakinada & another. … Respondents Counsel for the petitioners : Shri C. Upendra for Shri E.V. Bhagiratha Rao Counsel for the respondents : Government Pleader for Land Acquisition THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V. NAGARJUNA REDDY WRIT PETITION No. 16837 of 2007 ORDER:- This writ petition is filed for a writ of Mandamus to set aside the notification dated 31.05.2007 issued by respondent No.1 under Section 4(1) of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894 (for short, ‘the Act’). At the hearing, learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that after filing of the writ petition, notices under Section 5-A of the Act were issued to the petitioners and in pursuance of the same, they participated in the enquiry and raised objections. Learned counsel further stated that the objections are not disposed of so far. In view of the statement made by the learned counsel, I do not think it necessary to dispose of the writ petition on merits because if the objections raised by the petitioners are not accepted and the respondents still seek to proceed with the acquisition of their lands, they shall be at liberty to avail the appropriate remedy at that stage. For the above reasons, the writ petition is dismissed. No order as to costs. As a sequel to dismissal of the writ petition, WPMP.No.21476 of 2007 filed by the petitioners for interim relief is dismissed as infructuous. _____________________________ C.V.
