It is the case of the petitioner that society participated in the public auction held on 15.12.1992, conducted by the Government in respect of the subject land, and has become highest bidder. Pursuant to the same, the possession of the subject land was handed over to the petitioner by the respondents herein. The petitioner society developed the site and applied for layout on 09.09.1998, to Visakhapatnam Urban Development Authority. While things stood thus, the third party one Sri Batchhala Somanna claim right over the subject land and eventually filed W.A.No.664 of 2010, which came to be dismissed on 27.01.2020. Thereafter, the petitioner society made representations to the 2nd respondent- District Collector in Spandana program on 10.02.2020 & 14.02.2020, requesting them to enter its name in revenue records. The petitioner also made representations dated 03.02.2020 & 04.03.2020, to the respondent Nos.2 & 4 respectively. Pending consideration of the 3 representations, the respondents without issuing any notice or without following due procedure contemplated under law, tried to interfere with the petitioner society. Hence, the present writ petition. 3. This Court by order dated 24.06.2020, directed the respondents not to dispossess the petitioner from the subject land without following due procedure contemplated under law, till disposal of the representations made by it. 4. When the matter is taken up for hearing, it is represented by the learned Assistant Government pleader for Revenue that, in view of the interim order, the representations of the petitioner are not considered. He further submitted that in the counter affidavit filed by the then Tahsildar, Gajuwaka, in the above referred writ appeal, it was categorically stated that the subject land was auctioned, and the petitioner has become the highest bidder and accordingly, the subject land handed over to it. 5. In view of the above, the present writ petition is disposed of, directing the respondents to consider and pass appropriate orders on the representations made by the petitioner on 10.02.2020 & 14.02.2020, within a period of six (06) weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order.
