THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAMESH RANGANATHAN WRIT PETITION No.28802 of 2011 ORDER: The petitioner has invoked the jurisdiction of this Court against the order passed by the 3rd respondent under Section 3 of the A.P. Assigned Lands (Prohibition of Transfers) Act, 1977 (A.P. Act No.9 of 1977) directing his eviction from the lands in question. The petitioner claims to have purchased the assigned lands, and would contend that he is entitled to the protection under Section 3(5) as well as Section 4(1)(b)(i) of the Act. Sri G.Vijaya Kumar, learned counsel for the petitioner, would submit that the petitioner was unable to submit his objections to the notice issued to him under Rule 3 read with Form II of A.P. Assigned Lands (Prohibition of Transfers) Rules, 2007 as he was away in Devanahalli in the State of Karnataka. Learned Counsel would further state that the petitioner, being a landless poor person, is entitled for possession under Section 3(5) of the Act, as also to be reassigned the land under Section 4(1)(b)(i) of the Act. Against the order passed by the Tahsildar, directing eviction of a transferee, an appeal lies to the R.D.O. under Section 4-A of A.P. Act 9 of 1977. All the contentions urged before this Court can as well be raised before the appellate authority. Leaving it open to the petitioner, if he so chooses, to prefer an appeal and raise all such contentions as he has raised before this Court in the said appeal, the Writ Petition is dismissed. No costs. ___________ 28-10-2011 asp
