HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE ASHUTOSH MOHUNTA W.P. No. 7099 of 2011 DATED:18.03.2011 Between: Bonthu Devudamma and 8 others .. Petitioners And The Govt. of A.P. Boodhan Yagna Board ..

It is stated that the 2nd respondent-Boodhan Yagna Board holds around Ac.50.56 cents of open agricultural land in Sy.No.132 situated at Paradesipalem village, Visakhapatnam Rural Mandal. While so, it is stated that the District Collector, Visakhapatnam, addressed a letter dated 05.05.2005 to the Secretary, AP Bhoodan Board indicating that the land in question is proposed to be assigned to weaker sections for providing them house sites instead of agricultural purpose due to the dearth of irrigation sources in the village. Then, the petitioners made representation dated 10.03.2008 to the 2nd respondent requesting to consider their cases for allotment of house sites.
