The 3rd respondent filed a counter affidavit stating that though the assignment was granted as far back as 1992, the petitioners have not constructed any houses on the said property, and the land remains vacant to date. Therefore, the conditions of the assignment have been allegedly violated by the petitioners. It is further stated that the petitioners had accepted the issuance of revised pattas. 6. Today, when the matter is taken up for hearing, the learned Assistant Government Pleader for Revenue has placed on record a copy of the written instructions received from the 3rd respondent dated 08.01.2025.

The said written instructions of the Tahsildar-respondent No.3, dated 08.01.2025 are placed on record. 9. In view of the foregoing, this Court is of the considered view that in view of the fact that validity of the D-Form pattas are in operation, the respondents cannot take possession of the land on the alleged grounds of violation of assignment conditions without cancelling the assignment. 10. However, considering the statement made by the Tahsildar in the written instructions, wherein it is stated that due process of law would be followed if any dispossession is contemplated, the writ petition is disposed of with the direction to the respondents shall not dispossess the petitioners from their respective plots without following due process of law. 11. With the above observation, the writ petition is disposed of. There shall be no order as to costs. As a sequel, all pending miscellaneous applications shall stand closed. _______________________________ JUSTICE KIRANMAYEE MANDAVA Date: 21.01.2025 BSK 33 THE HONOURABLE SMT JUSTICE KIRANMAYEE MANDAVA WRIT PETITION NO: 6329/2020 Date: 21.01.2025 BSK
