IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE OF ANDHRA PRADESH AT HYDERABAD THE HON’BLE MS. JUSTICE G. ROHINI WRIT PETITION NO. 11294 OF 2000 Dated : JUNE 5, 2007 Between: Adari Srinu and others Petitioners AND Land Acquisition Officer and Special Deputy Collector, Y.R.P. Unit-III-cum-Revenue Divisional Officer (Regular) Peddapuram, East Godavari District Respondent THE HON’BLE MS. JUSTICE G. ROHINI WRIT PETITION NO. 11294 OF 2000 ORAL ORDER: This writ petition is filed seeking a direction that the action of the respondent in not considering the application of the petitioners made under Sec. 28-A of the Land Acquisition Act dated 06.04.2000 as arbitrary and illegal. In the counter affidavit filed on behalf of the respondent, it is stated that against the order of the learned Senior Civil Judge, Peddapuram, in OP No. 289 of 1991, an appeal AS No. 2507 of 2000 was preferred by the Government and since the same is pending on the file of this court, the request of the petitioners made under Sec. 28-A of the Land Acquisition Act could not be considered. When the matter is taken up for consideration, it is brought to my notice that the Appeal AS No. 2507 of 2000 was already disposed of by this court by judgment dated 01.03.2007. Since the objection raised by the respondent for non-consideration of the representation of the petitioners does not exist as on today, I deem it appropriate to dispose of the writ petition with a direction to the respondent to consider the representation of the petitioners dated 06.04.2000 and pass appropriate orders in accordance with law, as expeditiously as possible, preferably within a period of six weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. No costs. _________________ JUSTICE G. ROHINI JUNE 5, 2007 Copy in two days. //BO// MAS
