Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is aggrieved by the impugned proceedings dated 15.07.2025 and 21.07.2025.
The petitioner was granted a Form-D patta to an extent of 1½ cents in Survey No.527/2 in Pulivendula village. It is submitted that when the revenue authorities tried to dispossess the petitioner alleging that the petitioner had encroached an extent of Ac.0.0126 cents, the petitioner filed Writ Petition No.11179 of 2025. The said Writ Petition was disposed of by this Court on 01.05.2025 directing the respondent authorities to issue notice to the petitioner and demarcate the property assigned to the petitioner and take further action accordingly. It is submitted that the respondent authorities have issued notice dated 15.07.2025, duly referring to the order passed by this Court. However, no survey or no demarcation of the property was conducted by the respondent authorities. It is also submitted that the impugned proceedings dated 21.07.2025 would refer to the directions of this Court in W.P.No.11179 of 2025; however, the demarcation of the property was not done, but the direction to remove the alleged encroached portion of the land admeasuring Ac.0.0126 cents was observed. 2. Learned Standing Counsel for the 2nd respondent submits that the respondent authorities in compliance with the orders of this Court have issued a notice dated 15.07.2025, and that the property of the petitioner was demarcated and that the petitioner was directed to remove the encroached construction. 4
