THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.10651 of 2006 ORDER: The petitioner claims to be the owner of premises bearing No. 11-13-173/7, being plot No.14 carved out of Survey No.99 of Fathenagar Village, Balanagar Mandal, Ranga Reddy District, admeasuring 731 square yards. It is stated that the petitioner constructed a compound wall enclosing the plot. Her grievance is that the respondents are trying to demolish the compound wall and take over possession of part of it, without following the procedure prescribed under law. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned counsel for the respondents. The petitioner asserts rights of ownership over the plot referred to above. In case, it is needed for any Government purpose, the respondents are under obligation to issue notices under the relevant provisions of law. Even where a citizen is found to have encroached a Government property, the proceedings under the A.P. Land Encroachment Act are to be initiated. There cannot be any justification for the respondents to proceed against the property of the petitioner without taking recourse to law. Hence, the writ petition is disposed of, directing that the respondents shall not interfere with the property of the petitioner, except by following the procedure prescribed under law. There shall be no order as to costs. _____________________ L.NARASIMHA REDDY,J Dt: 12.11.2009 kdl
