THE HONBLE Ms. JUSTICE G. ROHINI WRIT PETITION No.10688 of 2008 ORAL ORDER: This writ petition is filed seeking a declaration that the action of the respondents in not considering the objections of the petitioner- society dated 22.2.2008 is arbitrary and illegal. The material on record shows that a notification under Section 4(1) of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894 (for short, "the Act") was published on 24.1.2008 for acquiring various extents of land described therein for a public purpose i.e., Rajeev Swagruha Scheme. As per the said notification, the Revenue Divisional Officer, Rajahmundry, was authorized to conduct enquiry under Section 5A of the Act. The petitioner-society states that though it submitted its objections dated 22.2.2008 pursuant to the said notification, the same have not been considered by the respondents. Nothing has been placed before this Court to show what is the extent of land in which the petitioner-society is interested and the particulars of the title acquired by it. Be that as it may, since the enquiry under Section 5A of the Act is proposed to be conducted, in case any objections are raised by the petitioner-society, the same shall be considered by the 2nd respondent and appropriate orders be passed in accordance with law, if a declaration under Section 6 of the Act is not already made. Till such time, the petitioner-society shall not be dispossessed without following due process of law pursuant to the notification dated 24.1.2008. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of. No costs. Kgr 23.06.2008.
