THE HON’BLE MR JUSTICE L. NARASIMHA REDDY Writ Petition No.6873 of 2011 ORDER: The petitioners claim to be the owners of 11,600 sq. yards of land in Sy.Nos.315 and 316 of Shaikpet Village, corresponding to Ward No.8, Block No.1 of Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation. Their grievance is that, though number of representations were filed before the respondents, alleging that certain unauthorized persons have grabbed the land, and made illegal constructions, no action has been taken thereon. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners, learned Government Pleader for Revenue and learned Standing Counsel for the Municipal Corporation. Even according to the petitioners, substantial portion of the land is encroached by third parties. If that be so, the proceedings under the A.P. Land Grabbing (Prohibition) Act, 1982, or other provisions of law have to be initiated. The respondents cannot be expected to protect the property of the petitioners, from grabbers. Hence, the writ petition is disposed of, leaving it open to the petitioners to pursue their remedies under the relevant enactments. There shall be no order as to costs. _______________________ L.
