HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE GODA RAGHURAM W.P.NO. 22801 OF 2006 DATED: 6.11.2006 Between: Gurram Venkata Krishna Prasad and another … Petitioners and The Land Acquisition Officer, R.D.O., Divisional Office, Nuzvidu, Krishna District and others … Respondents HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE GODA RAGHURAM W.P.NO.22801 OF 2006 ORAL ORDER: The writ petition is misconceived. The petitioners’ land in Allapuram village, Gannavaram Mandal, Krishna District, is proposed for acquisition under the provisions of Land Acquisition Act, 1894 (for short ‘the Act’). Pursuant to a notification under Section 4 (1) of the Act, notice under Section 5-A of the Act was issued to the petitioners calling for their objections, if any. The petitioners plead to having lodged their objections, pursuant to the notice under Section 5-A of the act, on 21.8.2006 and again in September, 2006. The petitioners allege that the respondents have not conducted any enquiry under Section 5-A of the Act nor has any decision been taken under Section 5-A (2) of the Act and communicated to them, by the competent authority. No draft declaration under Section 6 of the Act has yet been issued. In the circumstances above, the petitioners have no grievance at present. If the respondents publish a draft declaration under Section 6 of the Act without considering their objections, without taking a decision on the objections lodged by the petitioners and after communicating the decision thereon to them, under the hand of the competent authority, as required under Section 5-A (2) of the Act, the petitioners may have a grievance. As at present, there is no grievance to be pursued. In the circumstances, the writ petition is dismissed. There shall be no order as to costs. ------------------------------- GODA RAGHURAM, J Date: 6.11.2006 CVM
