The third respondent, by order dated 4.10.2005 directed resumption of the lands, on the ground that the lands were assigned lands and there were alienations contrary to the provisions of Act 9 of 1977. Aggrieved thereby, the petitioner preferred an appeal before the second respondent. The second respondent dismissed the appeal by order dated 21.2.2006. Aggrieved thereby, the petitioner preferred further appeal before the first respondent in March 2006 and also sought interim relief of stay of dispossession. This was in appeal No.E1/1374/2006. The petitioner is aggrieved that neither the appeal has been disposed of nor the interlocutory application, by the first respondent since March, 2006. Petitioner apprehends that he will be dispossessed even before the petitioner’s appeal is heard and disposed of by the first respondent. In the circumstances above, after hearing the learned Government Pleader for Revenue, the writ petition is disposed of, at the stage of admission directing the first respondent to expeditiously consider either the petitioner’s substantive appeal in E1/1374/2006 or the petitioner’s application for interim relief therein filed, in any event, within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. Till the determination by the first respondent on the petitioner’s appeal or interlocutory application, petitioner shall not be dispossessed from the lands in possession of the petitioner. His entitlement to continue thereafter would depend upon the result of the appeal or the application for interim relief. No order as to costs. ______________________ GODA RAGHURAM, J 02.05.2006 Note: Issue C.C as soon as possible (B/o) RAR/STP THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE GODA RAGHURAM WRIT PETITION NO.9547 OF 2006 DATED: 02.05.2006 RAR/STP
