APPELLANTS AND 1 The District Collector, Krishna at Machilipatnam. 2 The Mandal Revenue Officer, Gannavaram, Krishna District. .....RESPONDENTS Counsel for the Appellants: Mr.D.GOPALA RAO Counsel for the Respondents: G.P. FOR REVENUE The Court at admission stage made the following : ORAL JUDGMENT: (per Hon’ble Sri Bilal Nazki, the Acting Chief Justice) Only a show cause notice has been issued to the petitioners as to why they should not be evicted from the land as the land was allegedly assigned in contravention of the provisions of sub- section (2) of Section 3 of the A.P. Assigned Lands (Prohibition of Transfers) Act, 1977. Without replying to the show cause notice, they rushed to this Court and filed a writ petition which has been dismissed on 16th of June 2005. Not satisfied with the order of the learned single Judge, which cannot be faulted on any count, the present appeal has been filed. Since only a show cause notice has been issued, even if it is accepted that the same is without jurisdiction, this plea also can be taken before the Mandal Revenue Officer. As such, we find no merit in the appeal and it is accordingly dismissed. ______________________ (BILAL NAZKI, ACJ) 29th June 2005. _______________________ (G.CHANDRAIAH, J.)
