Heard Sri E.V.V.S.Ravi Kumar, learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Asst.Govt.Pleader for Land Acquisition. It is agreed by both the counsel that the issue raised in this writ petition is squarely covered by orders dated 24.07.2007 passed by this Court in W.P.No.16963 of 2006, which was disposed of on identical issue. In the said order, this Court directed that the respondents shall hold enquiry under Sec.5-A of the Act.

In view of the above, this writ petition is also disposed of in terms of the said order with the direction that the same shall be read as part of this order. ____________________________ C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY,J Dated: 29.01.2008 Dsr
