Petitioner claims to be the owner of lands in S.No.639 and 637 of Kavali Bit -I and S.Nos.5 and 7 of Maddurupadu village of Kavali Mandal, Nellore District. It is the case of the petitioner that there is a cart track classified as Donkaporamboke covered by S.No.638/1 and 638/2, used for passage of carts, camel etc., which leads to the lands of the petitioner. While so, one Sri Bandaru Durga Prasad Rao and his sons made attempts to encroach into the said cart track.

Aggrieved thereby, petitioner is said to have made several representations to the fourth respondent, the latest being 12-04-2004. 4.
