Govt. Pleader for Land Acquisition. HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V. NAGARJUNA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.20655 of 2007 ORDER: This Writ Petition is filed for a Writ of Mandamus to declare the inaction of the respondents in depositing the amount of compensation, which was subject matter of E.P.Nos.46, 47 and 48 of 2005 and E.P.Nos.35 and 36 of 2006 on the file of the Senior Civil Judge, Rajampet, Kadapa District, as illegal and arbitrary. The petitioners also sought for a consequential direction to deposit the compensation amount to the credit of the Senior Civil Judge, Rajampet, Kadapa District. At the hearing, learned counsel for the petitioners, Sri Busa Rajendra, admitted that some part of the E.P. amounts have been deposited and the balance amounts are required to be deposited. However, the learned Assistant Government Pleader for Land Acquisition submitted that the respondents have deposited the entire amount of compensation and that there is no further liability on their part. Since there is a dispute regarding the quantum of amounts to be deposited, which can be conveniently gone into and adjudicated in the pending E.Ps. I do not deem it appropriate to entertain this Writ Petition for adjudication on merits. The Writ Petition is accordingly disposed of. In view of the grievance expressed by the learned counsel for the petitioners that the acquisition is of the year 1985, it shall be appropriate if the learned Senior Civil Judge, Rajampet, Kadapa District, is directed to dispose of the pending E.P., as expeditiously as possible, preferably within three months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. Ordered accordingly. Registry is directed to communicate a copy of this order to the Senior Civil Judge, Rajampet, Kadapa District. ------------ --------------- Dt.1-11-2007 (C.V.Nagarjuna Reddy) Note: Issue CC in three days.
