HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.ESWARAIAH C.R.P.NO.834 OF 2008 Dt.11.11.2010 Between: Pelepu Ramakrishnaiah and others ..Petitioners And The Land Acquisition Officer, Y.L.M.C and R.D.O., Narsipatnam and others ..Respondents HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.ESWARAIAH C.R.P.NO.834 OF 2008 ORDER: This civil revision petition is filed against the action on the part of the learned Senior Civil Judge, Narsipatnam, in not passing appropriate orders in E.A.No.25 of 2001 in O.P.No.2 of 1991 on the file of the Senior Civil Judge, Narsipatnam. It is stated that the petitioners are claimants 4 to 7 in O.P.No.2 of 1991 and the said O.P has been disposed of on 21.9.1999 by the learned Senior Civil Judge, Chodavaram, enhancing the compensation. Therefore, the petitioners have filed cheque petition on 25.2.2001 in E.A.No.25 of 2001 in the said O.P. But the said cheque petition has not been disposed of. As against the acquisition of lands, various awards including award No.1/1991 dated 28.1.1991 had been passed by the Land Acquisition Officer acquiring certain lands for formation of Yeleru Left Main Canal intended for supply of water to the Steel Plant, Visakhapatnam as well as irrigation purpose. On the claim petition made by the claimants under Section 18 of the Land Acquisition Act, the Reference Court enhanced the compensation irrationally and exorbitantly and in certain cases amounts were also granted for trees, though the award does not cover the said trees. Questioning the said orders in various O.Ps., the Land Acquisition Officer filed appeals before this Court and this Court allowed the appeals filed by the Government holding that the claimants are entitled to the compensation as fixed by the Land Acquisition Officer. It is not known what happened in the instant case in O.P.No.2 of 1991 on the file of the Senior Civil Judge, Chodavaram. However, if the cheque petition is filed, it is for the learned Senior Civil Judge concerned to verify after conducting enquiry and pass appropriate orders in accordance with law and it cannot be kept pending indefinitely. The civil revision petition is accordingly disposed of directing the learned Senior Civil Judge, Narsipatnam, to consider and dispose of E.A.No.25 of 2001 in O.P.No.2 of 1991 in accordance with law. No order as to costs. ________________ V.ESWARAIAH, J. 11.11.2010 kpr
