THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY CONTEMPT CASE No.1685 of 2009 Date:19.02.2010 Between: Smt. Bairapuram Vengamma. ..... Petitioner AND Sri Mukesh Kumar Meena and another. .....Respondents Counsel for the Petitioner: Mr. M. Damodar Reddy. Counsel for the Respondents: Government Pleader for Land Acquisition The Court made the following Order: ORDER: This Contempt Case is filed to punish the respondents for the alleged willful disobedience of order dated 24.07.2008 in W.P.No.20216 of 2000. At the hearing, Sri Krishna Murthy, learned Government Pleader for Land Acquisition appearing for the respondents, placed before this Court award dated 10.02.2010 passed by the Land Acquisition Officer. In view of this development, the grievance of the petitioner raised in this Contempt Case stands redressed. Sri M. Damodar Reddy, learned counsel for the petitioner, however, contended that the award is not in conformity with the provisions of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894 (for short ‘the Act’) as the respondents have not awarded interest from the date of taking possession of the land. In my opinion, this aspect falls out of the scope of the Contempt Case. If the petitioner feels aggrieved by non-award of interest, she is entitled to avail remedies under the provisions of the Act. Subject to the above observations, the Contempt Case is closed. _________________________ (C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY, J) 19th February, 2010 GHN
