No.16043 of 2007 27.7.2007 Between Batchu Ramachandara Rao and another ..Petitioners AND The Sub Collector/ The Land Acquisition Officer, Vijayawada, Krishna District and others ..Respondents :: JUDGMENT :: HON’BLE SHRI JUSTICE NOOTY RAMAMOHANA RAO W.P. No.15700, 15714, 15716, 15887 and 15894 of 2007 When the same notification proposing to acquire land of larger extents including the land belonging to the petitioners herein is sought to be acquired, was called in question before this Court in a batch of writ petitions bearing W.P.Nos.15437 of 2007 and batch, they came to be decided on 20th July, 2007 with the directions as under: “For the above reason, I dispose of the writ petition permitting the petitioners to put forth their objections by way of representation in the enquiry being conducted under Section 5-A of the L.A. Act, with reference to their claims, title and possession within the land covered by S.No.249/2 admeasuring Ac.2.45 cents within a period of two weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order, and if such representations and objections are filed by the petitioners, the second respondent Revenue Divisional Officer and Land Acquisition Officer shall conduct enquiry by issuing notice to them and by following the provisions contained under Section 5-A of the L.A. Act, and pass appropriate orders. Unless such objections are considered and order under Section 5-A of the L.A. Act is communicated to the petitioners, no steps shall be taken against the petitioners for their eviction. However, if no objections are filed by the petitioners in the enquiry under Section 5-A of the L.A. Act or subject to outcome of the enquiry, it is open for the respondents to take further steps in accordance with the Land Acquisition Act and the Rules made there under.” In view of the fact that this writ petition also raises the same contentions and relates to the same notification, I consider it appropriate to dispose of this writ petition in the terms indicated supra. I further add that till Section 6 declaration is published, the petitioners however, shall not be dispossessed from their lands. The writ petition is accordingly, disposed of. No costs. _________________________________ NOOTY RAMAMOHANA RAO.J. 27.7.2007 psr
