The petitioners also seek a direction restraining the respondents from dispossessing them. It is the case of the petitioners that all of them have constructed houses in Ahobilam village and also obtained necessary voter identity cards and ration cards from the authorities. They allege that in Gram Panchayat Elections, 2006, they supported Telugu Desam Party and therefore, local M.L.A., with the help of respondents, is trying to dispossess the petitioners. After getting instructions, learned standing counsel for Gram Panchayats submits that the writ petition is filed on mere apprehension and there is no cause of action for the petitioners. Learned counsel for petitioners, however, submits that by the time the writ petition was filed, there was an attempt to demolish two houses and one house is already demolished and police complaint is also lodged. If that be so, they have to pursue the remedy against Panchayat Secretary or any other officials of Gram Panchayat, who allegedly resorted to such high handed demolition. The writ petition is not a proper remedy. The writ petition is accordingly dismissed. No costs. ______________ (V.V.S.RAO,J) 26.06.2007. pln
