Counsel for the Petitioner: MRCHETLURU SREENIVAS Counsel for the Respondents: GP FOR LAND ACQUISITION The Court made the following: THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE C.V.RAMULU WRIT PETITION NO.25182 of 2008 ORDER: In spite of service of notice, none appears for respondents 3 to 5. No counter is filed. The grievance of the petitioner is that the lands held by the petitioner to an extent of Acs.2.00 in Survey No.175 of Tappetlamorsu Village, Ghattu Mandal, Mahabubnagar District, were acquired as per the notification issued under Section 4 (1) of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894 (“the Act” for brevity). The name of the petitioner finds place in Section 4 (1) notification as well as Section 6 notification. However, according to the petitioner, neither the possession is taken nor the award is passed as required under the law. Now, the grievance of the petitioner is that the names of the respondents 3 to 5 do not find place either in Section 4 (1) notification or Section 6 notification but compensation is sought to be paid to respondents 3 to 5 against the lands held by the petitioner to an extent of Acs.2.00 in survey No.175 of Tappetlamorsu Village, which is arbitrary and illegal. It is the further case of the petitioner that in that regard, he made detailed representations before the second respondent on 17.04.2008 and 06.08.2008 and according to the petitioner, the said representations are not disposed of. Under those circumstances, without expressing any opinion on merits, the Writ Petition is disposed of directing the second respondent to dispose of the representations purported to have been filed by the petitioner on 17.04.2008 and 06.08.2008 and pass appropriate orders after conducting a detailed enquiry into the matter within a period of four {4} weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order and communicate the same to the petitioner. No order as to costs. _____________ (C.V.RAMULU, J) 22nd January 2009 RRB
