HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE GHULAM MOHAMMED AND HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE K.G. SHANKAR W.P. No. 20755 of 2011 DATED: 22.07.2011 Between: M. Yadagiri Reddy .. Petitioner And T.L.P. Charities rep. by its Trustee & In-charge of Legal Affairs and four others .. Respondents O R D E R:- (Per Hon’ble Sri Justice Ghulam Mohammed) The petitioner asserts that the 1st respondent filed L.G.C. No. 32 of 2009 on the file of the Special Court under A.P. Land Grabbing (Prohibition) Act, 1982, Hyderabad claiming that the petitioner, on 18.11.2008, grabbed Ac.19.00 guntas of land out of Ac.30.23 guntas belonging to the 1st respondent in Sy.Nos.33/8 to 33/10, without mentioning the area in each one of these survey numbers. He further states the land in his possession as found by the Commissioner and according to the report issued by the Mandal Revenue Officer, vide his proceedings dated 06.04.2000, is a garden with bore wells, farm house and servant quarter and is different from the one claimed by the 1st respondent. Therefore, the petitioner filed I.A. No.113 of 2010 in L.G.C.No. 32 of 2009 on 27.01.2010 seeking to reject the L.G.C. as not maintainable. Now, the grievance of the petitioner is that even though he filed the application on 27.01.2010, the Special Court has not yet disposed of the same. Hence, the petitioner has filed the present writ petition seeking appropriate directions. The learned counsel for the petitioner has submitted there is a dispute of identity and location of the land in question, but it is not a case of land grabbing, and further the claim of the respondents that the petitioner grabbed the application schedule land on 18.11.2008, does not fall within the ambit of the provisions of A.P. Land Grabbing (Prohibition) Act, 1982 and the Special Court has no jurisdiction to entertain the L.G.C. filed by the 1st respondent as the same is not maintainable, as such, direction may be issued to the Special Court for early disposal of the I.A. Heard the learned counsel for both the parties and perused the material placed on record. Having regard to the contentions put forth by the learned counsel for both the parties and the fact that the 1st respondent filed counter affidavit in I.A. No. 113 of 2010 in L.G.C. No. 32 of 2009 as early as in July 2010, and the matter is still pending consideration, we are not inclined to go into the merits of the case, but dispose of the writ petition with the following directions: “The 2nd respondent – Special Court under A.P. Land Grabbing (Prohibition) Act, 1982, Hyderabad is directed to consider the application filed by the petitioner in I.A. No.113 of 2010 in L.G.C. No. 32 of 2009 and dispose of the same on merits, expeditiously.” Subject to above direction, the writ petition is disposed of. No order as to costs. _____________________ GHULAM MOHAMMED, J 22.07.2011 _______________ K.G. SHANKAR, J bcj
