The Court made the following : O R D E R : The petitioner claims to be the owner of the land admeasuring Ac.1-08 gts. comprised in Survey No.843 of Miryalaguda village, Nalgonda District. It appears, Government of Andhra Pradesh notified an extent of Acs.87-32 of land for acquisition for public purpose for the provision of housing colony known as NSP Colony. However, it appears, the award was passed by the Land Acquisition Officer only in respect of Ac.81-38 gts. of land. When there was interference by the respondents, the petitioners filed writ petitions being W.P.Nos.15442 and 15443 of 1997 inter alia seeking an order restraining the respondents from interfering with the peaceful possession of the land. This Court disposed of the writ petitions. Subsequently, the Government filed review petitions. By order dated 8-11-2002 this Court reviewed its earlier order and directed the respondents not to interfere with the peaceful possession of the land admeasuring Ac.1-08 gts. in Survey No.843. When the writ petitions filed in 1997 were pending, the petitioner again filed the present writ petition alleging that the Lions Club of Miryalaguda, to whom the land was leased out, is trying to construct permanent structures over the land. In this writ petition the petitioner prayed for an order directing the respondents to refrain from interfering with the possession of the petitioner. In the counter affidavit filed on behalf of respondents 1 and 2, the allegation made by the petitioner that the land in Survey No.843 admeasuring Ac.1-08 gts. is not acquired, is not specifically denied. A categorical averment is made that the land of the petitioner is not acquired for provision of NSP Colony. Therefore, having regard to the orders passed by this Court in Review W.P.M.P.No.9420 and 9423 of 1999, dated 8-11-2002, no further orders are necessary in this writ petition. The writ petition is dismissed as infructuous. No costs. ________________ (V.V.S.RAO, J.) 13-09-2004. Msr.
