THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S.RAO WRIT PETITION No.4948 of 2010 Dated:04.03.2010 Between: Dhanda Ankamma. …Petitioner and Government of Andhra Pradesh, Represented by its District Collector, S.P.S.R.Nellore District, And others. …Respondents THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S.RAO WRIT PETITION No.4948 of 2010 ORDER: The petitioner is the owner of land admeasuring Acs.3.40 cents in survey No.178/2 of Kuricherlapadu Village of V.Satram Mandal in SPSR Nellore District. She purchased the land under a registered sale deed dated 17.02.1975. The petitioner’s land is situated on the eastern side of Harijanawada of the Village. She alleges that respondent Nos.2 and 3 approached her for giving some land for laying road to Harijanawada, which is situated on the western side of her land. When she refused and objected, it appears, a crime was registered in F.I.R.No.29 of 2010 against her son under Section 353 of the Indian Penal Code, 1860. Be that as it is, the petitioner alleges that at the behest of respondent Nos.4 and 5, respondent No.3 is making hectic efforts to lay the road without considering the representation dated 09.02.2010 made by the petitioner. Therefore, she filed the present writ petition complaining the action of respondent Nos.2 and 3 in laying the road in her land without due process of law. This Court heard learned Counsel for the petitioner and the learned Assistant Government Pleader for Revenue (Andhra Area). The petitioner has annexed a photostat copy of the sale deed, which would prima facie establish her title to the land in Survey No.178/2. Therefore, her right to enjoy the land cannot be interfered, nor she can be deprived of the property, unless respondents follow the procedure established under law as mandated by Article 300(A) of the Constitution of India. The Writ Petition, for the above reasons, is disposed of observing that unless and until the respondents initiate necessary action under the Land Acquisition Act, 1894, the petitioner’s land cannot be put to any use, much less, for laying the road. This order does not preclude respondent Nos.1 to 3 to lay the road to Harijanawada through the Government land or any alternative pathway. There shall be no order as to costs. _______________ (V.V.S.RAO, J) 04.03.2010 Note: Issue C.C in one week. B/o. vs
