THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAMESH RANGANATHAN Writ Petition No. 13484 of 2000 Order: Heard Sri L.J. Veera Reddy, learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Assistant Government Pleader for Land Acquisition. The relief sought for in the writ petition is to declare the action of the 2nd respondent (Special Deputy Collector, Land Acquisition, Telugu Ganga Project, Nellore) in not referring the dispute under Section 30 of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894 to the Civil Court, despite the petitioner submitting representation on 30.09.1999, seeking reference under Section 30 of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894, in respect of 5-15 Acres of land in Survey No.146 of Kudumaluru village, Vontimatta Mandal, Kadapa District, as illegal and arbitrary. Consequential direction is also sought to the 2nd respondent to refer the dispute to the Civil Court, with respect to 5-15 Acres of land under Section 30 of the Land Acquisition Act. The learned Assistant Government Pleader for Land Acquisition would point out that in the counter aﬃdavit ﬁled by the 2nd respondent, it is stated that necessary orders had been issued to deposit the compensation amount awarded towards the said survey number in the Civil Court under Section 30 of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894, vide proceedings of the 2nd respondent dated 26.09.2000, and that a cheque bearing No.547720, dated 13.10.2000 was drawn in favour of the Senior Civil Judge, Rajampet and was kept in the Civil Court, Rajampet. In view of this assertion in the counter aﬃdavit ﬁled by the 2nd respondent, it is evident that the relief sought for by the petitioner requesting that the matter be remitted to the Civil Court has already been granted. In view thereof, no orders are necessary in the writ petition. The writ petition is accordingly closed. No costs. __________________________ RAMESH RANGANATHAN, J. Date: 27.08.2008 Nsr
