RESPONDENTS THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.ESWARAIAH WRIT PETITION No.27575 of 2007 ORDER: It is the case of the petitioners that against the order passed by the Tahsildar, Khammam, in proceedings No.B/3324/2007-14, dated 20-07-2007, under Section 4(1) (a) of A.P.Assigned Lands (Prohibition of Transfers) Act, 1977 (for short “the Act”), in resuming the land admeasuring Ac.1-30 gts. in Sy.No.147 situated at Velugumatla Village, Khammam Urban Mandal, Khammam, on the ground that the said land is an assigned land and the possession of the petitioners is in contravention of sub-sections (1) and (2) of Section 3 of the Act, the petitioners filed an appeal before the Revenue Divisional officer, Khammam. The Revenue Divisional Officer, Khammam, through order, dated 08-10-2007, in Rc.No.B1/1865/2007, dismissed the appeal. Aggrieved by the same, the petitioners filed a revision before the Joint Collector, Khammam, in the last week of October, 2007 and the same is pending. It is stated that pending disposal of the revision, the 1st respondent is taking steps to dispossess the petitioners from the land in question. As the revision is pending, without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, I am of the opinion that it is just and proper to direct the 3rd respondent to consider and dispose of the revision. Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of directing the 3rd respondent to consider and dispose of the revision filed against the order of the 2nd respondent, dated 08-10-2007, in Rc.No.B1/1865/2007, as expeditiously as possible, in accordance with law, after giving reasonable opportunity to all the concerned. Pending disposal of the revision, status-quo obtaining as on today with regard to the possession of the land in question shall be maintained. There shall be no order as to costs. ___________ 24-12-2007 Prv
