THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.26359 of 2010 Dated 26th October, 2010 Between: K. Jagannath and others …Petitioners And The Deputy Collector and Tahsildar, Hayathnagar and others. …Respondents Counsel for the petitioners: Sri Nyayapathi Prashant Counsel for respondent No.1: Assistant Government Pleader for Revenue Counsel for respondent Nos.2 to 6: -- The Court made the following: ORDER: This writ petition is filed for a Mandamus to set aside the order dated 04.10.2008 passed by respondent No.1, whereby he has directed that possession of land admeasuring Acs.1.29 guntas in survey No.48 of Pedda Amberpet Village, after excluding the land already converted into non-agricultural, shall be delivered to respondent Nos.2 to 6. At the hearing, Sri N. Prashant, the learned counsel for the petitioners, fairly conceded that against the impugned order, his clients have the right of appeal under Section 90 (1) of the Andhra Pradesh (Telangana Area) Tenancy and Agricultural Lands Act, 1950. The law is well settled that this Court exercising its discretionary jurisdiction under Article 226 of the Constitution of India would not ordinarily entertain a writ petition filed bypassing the alternative remedy. Therefore, I am not inclined to entertain this writ petition and adjudicate the same on merits. Accordingly, the Writ Petition is dismissed with liberty to the petitioners to avail the remedy of appeal. Since the learned counsel for the petitioners apprehended dispossession, the petitioners shall not be dispossessed from the land in question for a period of four weeks from today to enable the petitioners to avail the remedy of appeal. As a sequel to dismissal of the writ petition, W.P.M.P.No.33666 of 2010 filed by the petitioners for interim relief is dismissed as infructuous. ‘ ________________________ C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY, J 26th October, 2010 GHN
