Narsimha Reddy … Petitioner and The Special Commissioner and Director of Settlements, Nampally and others … Respondents HON’BLE MS JUSTICE G. ROHINI W.P.NO.8071 OF 2000 ORAL ORDER: This writ petition is filed seeking a declaration that the alleged action of the respondents in attempting to interfere with the possession of the petitioner, in respect of the land in an extent of Ac.2.00 in Sy.No.240 of Vedurukuppam village, for the purpose of assigning the same to the third parties, is arbitrary and illegal. It is contended that the revision petition filed by the petitioner against the order passed by the Settlement Officer, Nellore dated 16.10.1981 under Section 11 (a) of the Andhra Pradesh (Andhra Area) Estates (Abolition and Conversion into Ryotwari) Act, 1948, is still pending before the 1st respondent- Special Commissioner and Director of Settlements, Hyderabad and pending such revision, the respondents ought not to have interfered with his possession. This Court, while directing Rule Nisi by order 2.5.2000, directed that the respondents shall not dispossess the petitioner pending disposal of the revision petition before the 1st respondent. In the counter affidavit filed on behalf of the respondents, the fact of pendency of the revision petition before the 1st respondent, is not disputed. Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of with a direction to the 1st respondent to dispose of the revision petition pending on its file, if not already disposed of, following due process of law. Till such time, the petitioner shall not be dispossessed from the land in question. There shall be no order as to costs. ------------------- G. ROHINI, J Date: 11.10.2007 cvm
