Counsel for the Petitioner: MR.Y.NARASIMHA REDDY Counsel for the Respondent No.: GP FOR LAND ACQUISITION The Court made the following : THE HON’BLE Ms. JUSTICE G. ROHINI WRIT PETITION No. 15530 of 2008 O R D E R: This writ petition is filed seeking a Mandamus challenging the notification dated 12-12-2007 issued under Section 4(1) of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894 acquiring the lands situated in Sy.Nos.53/2D and 55/3 of Mangalam village, Thirupathi Urban Mandal, Chittoor District as arbitrary and illegal. Since admittedly, the land belonging to the petitioners situated in Sy.No.78/2 of Mangalam village, Thirupathi Urban Mandal, Chittoor District is not covered by the said notification, I do not find any justifiable reason to grant the relief as prayed for. However, the petitioners state that since the entire land situated around their land is acquired leaving their land without any approach, they made a representation dated 14-02-2008 requesting to include their lands in the proposed acquisition. It is also brought to my notice that this Court in identical circumstances disposed of W.P.No.5911 of 2008 observing that the respondents may consider the representation of the petitioner therein and pass appropriate orders in accordance with law. Since the petitioner herein is also similarly situated, without going into the merits of the case, the writ petition is disposed of leaving it open to the respondents to consider the representation of the petitioners dated 14-02-2008 and pass appropriate orders in accordance with law. No costs. ______________ G. ROHINI,J Date: 21-07-2008 KLP
