THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE N.V. RAMANA WRIT PETITION No.11068 of 2005 ORDER: The petitioners claim to be the absolute owners of the lands mentioned in paragraph No.2 of the affidavit filed in support of the writ petition, situated in Kadili Village, Razole Mandal, East Godavari District. Their grievance is that the respondents are taking steps to dispossess them from the lands in question and cutting coconut trees stand therein for widening the road, without following due process of law. A counter-affidavit has been filed on behalf of the third respondent denying the contention of the petitioners that the respondents are threatening them to cut the coconut trees for the proposed road widening. It is stated that the proposed roads will be widened only when the private landowners willfully donate their lands for the said purpose and that the respondent authorities have no inclination to widen the road by forcibly taking their lands. It is further stated that the roads will be widened as per the guidelines issued by NABARD and that the work of laying and widening the road has not yet commenced. In view of the averments made in the counter-affidavit that the respondents are not dispossessing the petitioners from the lands in question and not cutting any coconut trees therein, the writ petition is closed. There shall be no order as to costs. N.V. RAMANA, J Date: 07.04.2010 va
