THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE R.SUBHASH REDDY WRIT PETITION No.17973 of 2010 ORDER: Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and the learned Assistant Government Pleader for Revenue appearing for the respondents. In this writ petition, the petitioners, who claim to be the owners of land admeasuring Ac.1.78 guntas covered by Survey Nos.35/3, 35/4, 35/5 and 35/6 of Prakasaraopeta Village, Polaki Mandal, Srikakulam District, seek a mandamus declaring the action of the respondents in proposing to acquire their land as illegal. Even according to the petitioners, there is no notification yet for acquisition of their land. On the ground that the authorities have measured the land, apprehending acquisition and dispossession, this writ petition is filed. In the absence of any notification, there is no reason to entertain the writ petition at this stage. However, in view of the apprehension of the petitioners, I deem it appropriate to direct the respondents not to dispossess them from the land in question as otherwise due process of law. Subject to the above direction, the writ petition is disposed of. No order as to costs. ______________________ R.SUBHASH REDDY, J 27th JULY, 2010. kvni
