The petitioners are the owners/holders of property abutting the said road. A perusal of pleadings in this writ petition undoubtedly suggest that it is a fact founded only on an apprehension. There is nothing on record to suggest that an action has been taken by the respondents for the purpose of taking possession of the properties belonging to the petitioners. There cannot be any doubt with respect to the position that any such action can be resorted only by invoking the relevant provisions under the relevant enactments. In short, I am of the considered view that this writ petition is premature. However, it is made clear that, in case, occasion demands and permits at a later point of time it will be open to the petitioners to resort to appropriate proceedings challenging any such proceedings in accordance WPC.1966/2011 : 2 : with law. With the said observation, this writ petition is closed. Sd/- (C.T. RAVIKUMAR, JUDGE) jma //true copy// P.A to Judge
