The grievance of the petitioner was that some constructions belonging to him were demolished by the respondents for road widening. The Government claimed that the structures had been built over the land belonging to the Government and as such they were within their rights to demolish the structures, but they conceded that they would pay compensation for the structures. The learned Single Judge, pending disposal of the writ petition, granted a stay for further demolition. But, during the pendency of the writ petition, the petitioner addressed a letter on 04-02-1999 to the respondents handing over the possession of the property subject to certain conditions. The Municipal Corporation valued the structures belonging to the petitioner that were demolished and fixed the compensation at Rs.5,90,194/-. A cheque was handed over to the petitioner, which was accepted by him. In these circumstances, the learned Single Judge disposed of the writ petition giving liberty to the petitioner to seek remedies, if aggrieved, from appropriate authorities. We do not find any ground to interfere in the matter. The writ appeal is accordingly dismissed. No order as to costs. __________________ (Bilal Nazki, ACJ) 14th June, 2005 __________________ (G.Chandraiah,J) vrn To 1 The District Collector, Hyderabad District, Hyderabad. 2 The Executive Engineeer, R & B, Govt. of A.P., Hyderabad District, Hyderabad. 3 The Commissioner, Municipal Corporation of Hyderabad, Hyderabad. 4 The Deputy Commissioner, Municipal Corporation of Hyderabad, Circle No.3, Hyderabad. 5 The Revenue Divisional Officer, Hyderabad. 6 The Mandal Revenue Officer, Musheerabad Mandal, Himayathnagar, Hyderabad. 7 One CC to G.P. for Revenue, High Court buildings, Hyderabad. 8 Two CD copies
