The petitioner states that the L.A.O.P. is a reference under Section 30 of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894 and though more than a decade had elapsed, the same is not being disposed of. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner. With a view to ascertain the reasons for the pendency of the L.A.O.P. for such a long time, this Court directed the learned counsel for the petitioner to ﬁle a certiﬁed copy of the docket proceedings in the L.A.O.P. Though nearly ten months have elapsed, the petitioner did not comply with the same. Be that as it may, the petitioner can, as well, approach this Court by ﬁling a civil revision petition under Article 227 of the Constitution of India. In such an event, the learned Portfolio Judge would have a clear idea as to the proceedings that are taking place in the trial Court and can issue necessary directions. Hence, the writ petition is dismissed, leaving it open to the petitioner to ﬁle a civil revision petition under Article 227 of the Constitution of India or to approach the trial Court itself for early disposal of the L.A.O.P. There shall be no order as to costs. __________________ L.NARASIMHA REDDY,J Dt:02.09.2008 kdl
