Learned Assistant Government Pleader says that respondent No.2 has no objection for reference of the dispute under Section 30 of the Act. In view of the above submissions of the learned counsel, the writ petition is disposed of with the direction to respondent No.2 to refer the dispute relating to the aforementioned lands to the competent civil court under Section 30 of the Act. Since the learned counsel also agreed that the balance amount of compensation, which is not disbursed so far may be directed to be kept in the Court deposit, respondent No.2 shall while referring the dispute under Section 30 of the Act keep the undisbursed amount of compensation in the Court deposit, payment of which will be made subject to the result of the dispute under Section 30 of the Act. The writ petition is disposed of in the manner indicated above. ___________________________ C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY,J Date:29.11.2007 mdaa
