THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAMESH RANGANATHAN WRIT PETITION No.29434 of 2011 ORDER: A submission is made by Sri G.Dhananjai, Learned Counsel for the petitioner, that another W.P.No.11106 of 2007 questioning a similar notice, issued under Section 3(2) of the Andhra Pradesh Assigned Lands (Prohibition of Transfers) Act, 1977, is pending on the file of this Court. The proceedings under challenge is the show cause notice dated 24.05.2007 issued more than four years ago. The petitioner claims to have submitted his reply thereto in June 2007. I see no reason at this stage to entertain this Writ Petition both on the ground of inordinate delay of more than four years, and as the impugned proceedings is a mere show cause notice to which the petitioner has already submitted his reply. It is always open to him to question the orders that may be passed pursuant to the show cause notice dated 24.05.2007 in appropriate proceedings. The Writ Petition fails and is, accordingly, dismissed. However, in the circumstances, without costs. RAMESH RANGANATHAN,J Date:03.11.2011 usd
