HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V. NAGARJUNA REDDY W.P.No.25223 of 2011 Date : 8-12-2011 Between: Hymavathamma w/o. Venkat Reddy .. Petitioner And The State of Andhra Pradesh, Represented by its Principal Secretary, Revenue (Land Acquisition), Hyderabad and another .. Respondents Counsel for petitioner: Sri Chandra Murthy Counsel for respondents : Assistant Government Pleader for Land Acquisition The Court made the following: ORDER: This Writ Petition is ﬁled for a mandamus to declare the inaction of the respondents in depositing enhanced compensation amount in terms of the Judgment and decree in O.P.No.48/1993 on the ﬁle of learned Subordinate Judge, Gadwal, as conﬁrmed by this Court by Common Judgment in A.S.No.1520/1997 and A.S.No.1534/1997, dated 19- 7-2007. The property belonging to the petitioner was acquired for providing house-sites to ST/BC/EBC families. At the instance of the petitioner, the issue relating to compensation in respect thereof was referred to the Court of the learned Subordinate Judge, Gadwal (for short “the Civil Court”). The Civil Court disposed of the above mentioned Original Petition, by Judgment and decree dated 29-3-1996, ﬁxing compensation at Rs.9/- per sq. yard. Feeling aggrieved by the said Judgment and decree, the respondents preferred appeal vide A.S.No.1534/1997 and the appeal ﬁled by the petitioner was taken on ﬁle as A.S.No.1520/1997. Both the appeals are stated to have been dismissed by this Court by Judgment and decree dated 19-7-2007. The petitioner has ﬁled Execution Petition (EP) seeking execution of the Judgment and decree of the Civil Court, as conﬁrmed in the appeals. The grievance of the petitioner is that even though substantial time had elapsed, the enhanced compensation has not been deposited. At the hearing, the learned Assistant Government Pleader for Land Acquisition, on instructions, stated that on 22-8-1998, a sum of Rs.1,26,945/-, being half of the decretal amount, was deposited in the Civil Court. The respondents have not disputed their liability to pay the remaining amount under the above mentioned decree to the petitioner. As the payment is outstanding for a number of years, I do not ﬁnd any justiﬁcation for the respondents not to deposit the balance compensation amount. Accordingly, the respondents are directed to deposit the E.P. amount before the Civil Court within a period of three months from today. Subject to the above direction, the Writ Petition is disposed of. As a sequel, WPMP No.31024/2011 is disposed of as infructuous. ________________________ Justice C.V.
