He purchased these plots from Bal Reddy and Kistaiah under two separate sale deeds. He commenced construction. When there was interference by one Rama Chandraiah he filed O.S.No.221 of 2003 on the file of the Court of the Junior Civil Judge, Mahabubnagar. Even while the suit is pending, it is alleged that the Tahasildar started interfering with the possession. Therefore, he filed the instant writ petition. The second respondent filed a counter affidavit. It is stated that the Government land in survey No.25 is adjacent to patta land in survey No.13. An extent of 140 square yards in possession of the petitioner is encroachment into survey No.25. Therefore, after issuing notice under Section 7 of the Andhra Pradesh Land Encroachment Act, 1905, an order was passed under Section 6 thereof on 26.07.2005, and possession was taken. Insofar as the other extent is concerned, the title of the petitioner is not denied. In view of the counter averments, which are not denied and also the fact that the proceedings are already completed under the Andhra Pradesh Land Encroachment Act insofar as 140 square yards is concerned, the writ petition is disposed of observing that the respondents shall not interfere with the petitioner’s possession of the house sites in survey Nos.13/AA and 13/EE which are purchased under registered sale deeds. It shall also be open to the petitioner to challenge the proceedings under the Andhra Pradesh Land Encroachment Act before appropriate appellate authority. The Writ Petition with the above observations is accordingly disposed of. _______________ (V.V.S.RAO, J) 02.12.2010 vs
