THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAMESH RANGANATHAN WRIT PETITION NO.21727 OF 2011 ORDER: The relief sought for in this writ petition is to declare the action of the respondents in directing the petitioners not to proceed with construction of the houses, on the land in Sy.No.936/A of different extents, said to have been allotted to the petitioners on 21.2.2000 and 24.3.2001, as arbitrary and illegal. It is the petitioners case that the then M.R.O. had granted house site pattas to several others including the petitioners herein and, while the petitioners were in the process of commencing construction in the house sites in question, the respondents were interfering therewith and preventing the petitioners from constructing houses on the ground that the lands allotted to them earlier are adjacent to the railway track and R.B. road in the village. In the counter affidavit filed on behalf of the respondents it is stated that the land in Sy.No.936/A of an extent of Ac.119-38 of Peddapalle village of Sidhout Mandal is classified as U.A.W. as per revenue records; the plot numbers and the measurements noted in the possession certificates did not tally with the extents of land allotted and the boundaries were also not properly noted; no records are available in their office to show that the possession certificates were issued to the petitioners; in the absence of a lay out sketch and wrongly noted boundaries and measurements, two groups of people were quarrelling for the house sites and creating law and order problem; criminal cases wee registered in Cr.Nos.84/2011 and 85/2011; as there was no proper record of evidence of their having issued possession certificates, the certificates must be treated as bogus; several persons were seeking to grab the land by gathering some followers as the value of the land had risen enormously; the said land is adjacent to railway track and falls within the area where the state high way is proposed to be widened; and preliminary survey has also been taken up; it was considered inappropriate to assign the said land. It is further stated that the petitioners never occupied the site said to have been allotted to them in the year 2001; their contention that they are in possession and enjoyment of house sites in Sy.No.936/A was incorrect; and no evidence was produced by the petitioners to show that they are displaced persons under the Somasila Project or that their lands and house sites were acquired under the project. Since there is a serious dispute regarding the genuineness or otherwise of the allotment of house sites in favour of the petitioners and, in as much as the petitioners rely on certain possession certificates and not on assignment pattas granted in their favour, the only relief which can be granted is to permit them to approach the 3rd respondent who shall cause necessary enquiry into the genuineness of the petitioners’ claim of having been granted house site pattas in the aforesaid land, and thereafter take necessary action in accordance with law. In case the petitioners approach the 3rd respondent within two weeks from today, and place all material in their possession before him during the enquiry, the 3rd respondent shall examine the entire dispute within three months from the date of receipt of the representation, and thereafter take action in accordance with law. The Writ Petition stands disposed of accordingly. No costs. ___________ 08-09-2011 asp
