V V SATISH Counsel for the Respondent(S): 1. GP FOR REVENUE (AP) The Court made the following order: Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and learned Assistant Government Pleader for the revenue appearing for the respondents. 2. Challenging the action of the 3rd respondent in interfering with the possession of property of an extent of Ac.1.10 cents in Sy.No.493/3, Avilala Village, Tirupati Rural Mandal, Chitoor District, 2 in order to allot house site patta in favour of beneficiaries of the Navaratnalu-pedalandariki Illu scheme, the present writ petition is filed. 3. It is contended that the grandfather of the petitioners has purchased the subject land through a registered sale deed bearing document No.835 of 1966. After the death of petitioners’ grandfather, the property devolved upon the petitioners and they have been in peaceful possession since 1966. While so, it was noticed by the petitioners that in the revenue adangal, against ownership and possession column, it is mentioned as Anadeenam (unknown). In the meanwhile, the 3rd respondent started to interfere with the subject property intending to take the land for the purpose of allotting to the beneficiaries under the Navaratnalu-pedalandariki Illu scheme. Against the said action, the petitioner filed the present writ petition and this Court, at the admission stage, granted interim order directing the respondents to maintain status-quo with regard to the subject land. 4. The 3rd respondent has filed counter affidavit stating that, as per the revenue, the subject land is a Government land classified as Assessed Waste Dry (AWD) and the assignment granted in the subject land was cancelled long back and the land is vested with the 3 Government. In view of the same, the contention of the petitioners that the subject property was purchased by her grandfather in the year 1966 is not tenable. 5. Considered the rival submissions. 6. This Court deems it appropriate to dispose of the writ petition directing the 3rd respondent herein not to interfere with the subject property of an extent of Ac.1.10 cents in Sy.No.493/3, Avilala Village, Tirupati Rural Mandal, Chitoor District, except by following the due procedure contemplated under law. 6. Accordingly, the Writ Petition is disposed of. There shall be no order as to costs. Miscellaneous petitions pending, if any, shall stand closed. ________________________ KIRANMAYEE MANDAVA,J Date: 25.02.2025 ANS 4 211 THE HONOURABLE SMT JUSTICE KIRANMAYEE MANDAVA WRIT PETITION NO: 6738/2020 Date: 25.02.2025 ANS
