HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAMESH RANGANATHAN W.P.NO. 10813 of 2006 Date: 17-02-2011 Between: M.V. Appa Rao …… petitioner and District Collector, Visakhapatnam District, and another …… Respondents HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAMESH RANGANATHAN W.P.NO. 10813 of 2006 ORDER: The relief sought for in this writ petition is that petitioner be furnished a certified copy of the adangals. While several contentions are urged on behalf of the respondents, in reiteration of what is stated in the counter affidavit including that the petitioner is not in possession of the lands, that the land belongs to the government and that fraudulent sales are taking place, no dispute is raised to the petitioner’s entitlement for being furnished a certified copy of the adangals. It is not known as to how furnishing a certified copy of the adangals would entitle the petitioner to remain in illegal possession of government land. The respondents are, therefore, directed to furnish a certified copy of the adangals to the petitioner on payment of prescribed charges. It is open to them to make it clear that furnishing the certified copy will be without prejudice to their rights to evict the petitioner from the lands in question. The writ petition is disposed of accordingly. No order as to costs. _______________________ RAMESH RANGANATHAN, J Date: 17-02-2011 YCR
