Opposing this acquisition, they filed their objection before the proper authority of the Land Acquisition Act, 1940 but that objection has not been disposed of and is still pending. Considering the fact that the writ application has been filed after a very long delay without explaining the reason for coming before this court after such a long time, this application is dismissed. In case, petitioners’ objection is still pending, they may pursue it. akv (Mridula Mishra, J.)
