Korde, AGP for respondent nos.1 to 6 in WP 3580/11. Smt.V.A. Shinde, AGP for respondent nos.1 to 6 in WP 3581/11. CORAM: D.B. BHOSALE & S.B. DESHMUKH, JJ. Date: 20.06.2011 Heard learned counsel for the parties. These three writ petitions, filed by villagers in three different villages, are directed against the order dated 10.10.2006 issued by the Collector, Aurangabad. We have perused the said order. By this order, it appears that directions are WPs 3579/11, 3580/11 & 3581/11 2 issued to take steps for acquisition of land for storage tank to be constructed at Anjandoh Tq.Aurangabad covering the land within the jurisdiction of three villages. In our opinion, these petitions are premature. No further steps, except the measurement of the land, have been taken by the concerned authorities till this date. The petitioners will be entitled for hearing at appropriate stage/s. With these observations, the petitions are disposed of. All contentions of the petitioners are kept open. We hope and trust that the concerned authorities shall consider and decide the petitioners’ objections that will be raised at appropriate stage/s on merits and in accordance with law. (S.B.
