THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY Writ Petition No.1012 of 2010 ORDER: The petitioners claim to be the assignees of land in Survey Nos.1118/2 and 2070/1,3&4 of Doddi Village, Piler Mnadal, Chittoor District. On coming to know that the 3rd respondent initiated proceedings under the A.P. Assigned Lands (Prohibition of Transfers) Act vis-à-vis the land, the petitioners approached him and found that notices were issued to certain alleged purchasers. The petitioners contend that they have not been issued notices at all and still the 3rd respondent is proceeding with the matter. Learned Government Pleader for Revenue on instructions submits that the notices were dispatched to the petitioners also and that the transferees have already submitted explanation on 22.01.2010. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and the learned Government Pleader for Assignment. Though the petitioners did not receive any notice, they did come to know about the proceedings initiated against them. They have also filed copies of the notices that were issued to the transferees. Even now, the petitioners can submit their explanation from their point of view. The 3rd respondent would be under obligation to consider the same before any orders are passed under the Act. Therefore, the writ petition is disposed of granting 15 days’ time to the petitioners to submit their explanation. The 3rd respondent shall take the same into account, before any orders are passed in pursuance of the show cause notice issued by him. There shall be no order as to costs. __________ 28.01.2010 Note: Issue C.c. in one week. (B/o) JSU THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY Writ Petition No.1012 of 2010 Date: 28.01.2010 JSU
