Narsinga Rao …Petitioner And The Mandal Revenue Officer Medchal Mandal, Ranga Reddy District …Respondent THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S.RAO WRIT PETITION NO.26160 OF 2005 ORDER: The petitioner allegedly purchased an extent of Ac.0.19 gts. in S.No.570, and Ac.1.10 gts. in S.No.571 of Gowdavally Village, Medchal Mandal, Ranga Reddy District, under registered sale deeds from erstwhile owners. The respondent herein initiated action under A.P.Assigned Lands (Prohibition of Transfers) Act, 1977 (for short, the Act) and issued notice in Form-1 under Rule 3 of the A.P. Assigned Lands (Prohibition of Transfer) Rules, 1977 (for short, the Rules) calling upon the petitioner to show cause as to why the petitioner should not be summarily evicted from the subject land alleging that the petitioner purchased the land in contravention of the provisions of the Act. The petitioner submitted explanation on 30.11.2005 and the matter is still pending before the respondent. Alleging that even before passing final orders the respondent and his subordinates are trying to dispossess the petitioner, the petitioner filed present Writ Petition seeking a direction to the respondents not to take any coercive steps against the petitioner. After hearing the learned counsel for the petitioner, this Court is convinced that the Writ Petition is filed on mere apprehension. The Mandal Revenue Officer has proceeded on correct lines and issued notice in Form-1 as required under Rule 3 of the Rules, and this Court has no manner of doubt that the respondent shall consider the representation/explanation submitted by the petitioner and pass necessary orders within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. In this Writ Petition no direction can be granted as prayed. The Writ Petition with the above observations is accordingly dismissed. _______________ (V.V.S.RAO, J) 8.12.2005 bnr
