HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE R. SUBHASH REDDY WRIT PETITION No.25920 of 2008 Date : 20.09.2011 Between : Madaka Kannamma. …..Petitioner And The Tahsildar, Anakapalle & another. …..Respondents HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE R. SUBHASH REDDY WRIT PETITION No.25920 of 2008 ORDER : This writ petition is filed, seeking directions by way of Mandamus, declaring the action of respondents in trying to dispossess the petitioner from 0.03 cents of house site in Sy.No.390 part, Plot No.1523 of Maredupudi village of Anakapalle Mandal in Visakhapatnam District without following due process of law, as illegal and arbitrary. It is the case of petitioner that in view of her long- standing possession of the aforesaid land, being a poor person without house site, she is entitled for grant of said house site. It is her grievance that only due to political reasons, her request is not being considered. On instructions, it is submitted by the learned Government Pleader that the land in Sy.No.390, totally admeasuring Ac.1.02 cts., is classified as ‘vagu poramboku’ in the revenue records and hence, no house site pattas can be issued in the said land, and at present, the said land is vacant on ground. It is further stated that recently, when some unauthorized persons have tried to encroach upon the land, steps were taken to prevent the encroachments. Though it is the case of petitioner that she is entitled for grant of house site patta due to her long-standing possession of the land in question, as it is submitted by the learned Government Pleader that the said land is recorded as ‘vagu poramboke’ in the revenue accounts, no direction can be granted to assign the said house site to the petitioner. For the aforesaid reasons, the writ petition is devoid of merit and it is accordingly dismissed. No costs. ______________________ R. SUBHASH REDDY, J 20th September 2011 ajr
