HON’BLE MR.JUSTICE R. SUBHASH REDDY Writ Petition No.24628 of 2007 Date: August 11, 2011 Between: Smt.D.Subbayamma, W/o.Hanumantha Rao, aged about 64 years, Occ:housewife, R/o.Tatipaka village, Rajole Mandal, East Godavari District … Petitioner And The District Collector, Kakinada, East Godavari District and others … Respondents Order: This writ petition is filed with a prayer as under: “For the reasons stated in the accompanying affidavit, the petitioners herein prays that this Hon’ble Court may be pleased to issue a writ order or direction more particularly one in the nature of Writ of Certiorari and to quash the impugned undated notification issued by the 1st respondent for acquiring the lands in Ac.1.25 cents wet land in Sy.No.8/2 out of Ac.1.25 cents, Ac.0.14 cents wet land in Sy.No.9/2 out of Ac.0.49 cents and in Ac.2.26 cents wet land in Sy.19 out of Ac.2.26 cents of Tatipaka village in Rajole Mandal, East Godavari District and pass such other order or orders as this Hon’ble Court may deem fit and proper in the circumstances of the case.” Petitioner claims to be the owner and possessor of Ac.4.00 cents of land in Sy.Nos.8/2, 9/2 and 19 of Tatipaka village, Rajole Mandal, East Godavari District. It is her grievance that a notification, without mentioning any date, has been issued by the respondents to acquire the said land. It is stated that as much as the said land is an agricultural land, it cannot be acquired for the purpose of housing schemes in absence of any conversion of the same from agricultural purpose to non-agricultural purpose under the provisions of A.P.Agricultural Lands (Conversion for Non-Agricultural Purpose) Act, 2006. The 2nd respondent, Revenue Divisional Officer, Amalapuram, has filed counter-affidavit on behalf of the respondents. While denying the allegations of the petitioner, in the counter-affidavit, it is stated that notification under Section 4(1) of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894 was issued on 01.11.2006. It is stated that if the petitioner has any objections for the proposed acquisition, she can as well raise objections before the respondents. It is brought to the notice of this Court that though notification under Section 4(1) of the Act was issued on 01.11.2006, in view of interim stay granted by this Court in W.P.M.P.No.1501 of 2007 in W.P.No.1175 of 2007, filed by one of the land owners, enquiry is not conducted with reference to the notification. When the enquiry is not dispensed with, there is no reason for the petitioner to approach this Court on the allegations made by her in the writ petition. As much as enquiry under Section 5-A of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894 is pending with regard to the subject land, the petitioner is permitted to file her objections within a period of six weeks from today and if any such objections are filed, the Land Acquisition Officer shall consider the same before taking further steps in the matter. Writ petition is accordingly disposed of. No order as to costs. ___________________ (R.SUBHASH REDDY, J) August 11, 2011 MRR
