THE HON’BLE SRI BILAL NAZKI, THE ACTING CHIEF JUSTICE AND THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE R.SUBHASH REDDY WRIT APPEAL No. 178 of 2003 08-09-2005 Between: Pantham Bapamani & Others. .....APPELLANTS AND Government of A.P., rep. by its Secretary, A.P.Bhoodana Yagna Board, Hyderabad & Others. .....RESPONDENTS THE HON'BLE SRI BILAL NAZKI, THE ACTING CHIEF JUSTICE And THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE R.SUBHASH REDDY WRIT APPEAL No. 178 OF 2003 JUDGMENT : (Per Hon’ble Sri Bilal Nazki, ACJ) Heard learned counsel for appellants. This appeal is against an order passed by a learned Single Judge in Writ Petition No.18588 of 1999. It appears that the writ petitioners’ ancestors donated some land in the ‘Bhoodan Movement’. Later on, the petitioners had claimed that the land was donated by one of the members of the joint family and therefore, the donation itself was bad. However, this challenge was given up, but it was contended that respondents No.4 to 16 were not eligible to be allotted pattas. Counsel for appellants refers to some internal communication of the Department. But in the counter affidavit it has been specifically stated by ‘Andhra Pradesh Bhoodana Yagna Board’ that the land was allotted to respondents No.4 to 16 after due enquiry by Mandal Revenue Officer. We feel that by challenging the allotment of land to respondents No.4 to 16, the appellants wants to grab the land back and as they could not do it in view of the gift having become final, therefore, they are creating hurdles for others in getting pattas for the said land. We do not find any merit in the writ appeal, which is accordingly dismissed. No order as to costs. __________________ (BILAL NAZKI, ACJ) 8th September 2005. _____________________ (R.SUBHASH REDDY, J) ajr
