Mr. C. R. Sonawane, AGP for Respondents – State. CORAM : D. D. SINHA & A. A. SAYED , JJ. DATED : JANUARY 12, 2010. P.C. : 1. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and learned AGP for the State. 2. The grievance of the petitioners is that the land of the petitioners is acquired for Tulsi Project. It is contended that petitioners are project affected persons within the meaning of sub section (2) of section 2 of the Maharashtra Project Affected Persons Rehabilitation Act, 1999. It is contended that the claim of the petitioners was considered and the petitioners were found eligible for allotment of alternate lands / plots in lieu of the acquired land and therefore order dated 10th February 2009 in this regard was passed by respondent No. 2 and vide communication dated 4th March 2009 Tahsildar was asked to deliver the possession in respect of the 2 plots to the petitioners. However, till this date the petitioners are not put in possession of the land in question and therefore the petitioners have approached this court by filing the present writ petition seeking the direction to the respondents to implement the orders passed by the respondent No.2 Collector. 3. The above referred factual aspect has not been disputed by the learned Assistant Government Pleader. 4. In the circumstances, it appears that the eligibility of the petitioners to get the alternate land in lieu of the land of the petitioners which was acquired for the project is not in dispute. The Collector already considered this aspect and passed the order dated 10th February 2009 in this regard and communication dated 4th March 2009 has already been issued. However, the petitioners are not given possession of the land in question till this date and therefore we hereby direct the respondent No. 2 to ensure that his own order dated 10th February 2009 shall be implemented within a period of three months from the date of communication of our Order if there is no other legal impediment. With these observations and directions the writ petition is disposed of accordingly. (D. D. SINHA, J.) ( A. A. SAYED, J.)
