THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S.RAO WRIT PETITION NO.24703 OF 2005 DATED:21.11.2005 Between: S. Padma Reddy and another …Petitioners And The Special Deputy Collector (Land Acquisition, Unit-4) HUDA Complex, Tarnaka, Hyderabad …Respondent THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S.RAO WRIT PETITION NO.24703 OF 2005 ORDER: The petitioners among others are owners of land admeasuring Ac.6.16 gts. in S.No.541 of Gowdavalli Village, Medchal Mandal, Ranga Reddy District, which is proposed to be taken by the respondent for outer ring road. In this Writ Petition, the petitioner seeks a direction to the respondent to immediately pay compensation to the petitioners as the petitioners are unable to eke out a decent living, because no other person is willing to buy the land. Even according to the petitioners, the respondent while issuing notification under Section 4(1) of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894 (for short, the Act) has not dispensed with enquiry under Section 5-A of the Act and therefore there cannot be any direction by this Court to pay compensation pending further steps for acquisition. If such an order is granted, it would amount to giving Mandamus contrary to law and in contravention of law. The Writ Petition is therefore dismissed. _______________ (V.V.S.RAO, J) 21.11.2005 bnr
