IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE, ANDHRA PRADESH AT HYDERABAD (Special Original Jurisdiction) PRESENT: THE HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY THURSDAY, THE TWENTY FIRST DAY OF JULY, TWO THOUSAND AND ELEVEN WRIT PETITION Nos.15844 & 15845 OF 2007 WRIT PETITION No.15844 OF 2007 Between: Kakarla Ramakrishna Reddy (died), his LR-wife K.Eswaramma and others. … Petitioners And The Special Deputy Collector (L.A) Somasila Project, Unit-IV, Rajampet, Kadapa District. … Respondent Counsel for the petitioners: Sri D.Kodanda Rami Reddy. (Both the cases) Counsel for the respondent: GP for Land Acquisition. (Both the cases) This Court made the following: COMMON ORDER:- These two Writ Petitions are taken up for hearing and disposal at the interlocutory stage. These Writ Petitions are filed for a Mandamus to direct the respondent to refer their claims for enhancement of compensation to a competent Civil Court under Section 18 of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894. At the hearing, the learned Government Pleader for land acquisition invited my attention to final order dated 23- 10-2007 in Writ Petition No.9790 of 2007 in which identical relief was claimed. A perusal of the said order would show that the said Writ Petition was disposed of with the following directions: “ i) The Special Deputy Collector, Land Acquisition shall make verification of the claims, which shall be completed within a period of one month from today. ii) If the Land Acquisition Officer is satisfied that the petitioners have made their applications for reference under Section 18 of the Act within the time stipulated under the provisions of the Act, he shall make a reference of the same without further loss of time. Conversely, if he is satisfied that the applications are bared by time, he is at liberty to reject reference”. Since these two Writ Petitions are identical to the Writ Petition, which was disposed of by the above noted order, they are also disposed of in terms of the above reproduced directions. As a sequel, all the interlocutory applications pending these Writ Petitions are disposed of as infructuous. ------------------------------------- - C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY,J Date:21-7-2011 MNR
