The case of the petitioner is that he purchased a residential plot to an extent of 556.86 sq. yards in R.S.No.66 situated at Bhavanipuram, Vijayawada, vide registered document No.1198. Out of the said property, he has sold an extent of 136.11 sq. yards, situated on northern side, in favour of one G.Vittal, vide registered document No.5621/02 and another extent of 132.28 sq. yads on northern side of the property sold in favour of one Smt P. Anasuya Devi, vide registered document No.5760 of 2002 and that remaining extent of about 288 sq. yards of land is in his physical possession and enjoyment. While so, with the intervention of his neighbours, the officials of the respondent directed him on 20-04-2006 to remove the fencing chain, without issuing any notice to him. Hence, the writ petition. Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case, I do not find any basis for the apprehension of the petitioner and that if any portion of the property is required for public purpose, the respondent cannot demolish the structures of the said premises without acquiring the same by following due process of law. Accordingly, the Writ Petition is disposed of directing the petitioner to file a representation before the respondent by enclosing documentary evidence showing his title and possession over the property and if any such representation is filed, the respondent shall consider and dispose of the same in accordance with law. The Writ Petition is accordingly disposed of. No order as to costs. ______________ V. ESWARAIAH, J Dated:27-04-2006 sj
