Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner was allotted the aforementioned extent of land under the landless poor scheme and she has been in possession and enjoyment of the same. He would submit that the 4th respondent, without issuing any notice, is attempting to dispossess the petitioner from the said property. 4. Learned Assistant Government Pleader for Revenue for the respondents submitted the written instructions of 4th respondent-Tahsildar. As seen from the instructions, assignment of land for construction of house in favour of petitioner was not disputed. However, it is stated that the house construction, either by the A.P. State Housing Department or the petitioner, was not completed within the time prescribed. Further, after lapse of three years, the petitioner is trying to construct a house and thus, violated the rules under the A.P. Housing Scheme. Learned Assistant Government Pleader for Revenue would submit that the respondent authorities will follow due process of law. 5. Given the instructions of the 4th respondent-Tahsildar, keeping the writ petition and inviting a counter will not serve any purpose. 6. Accordingly, the Writ Petition is disposed of at the admission stage with the consent of learned counsel on either side, directing the 4th respondent not to interfere with an extent of 96 square yards in S.No.3 covered under House Site Patta in Rc.No.130/2023, dated 19.06.2023 situated at Bowluvada, Anakapalle Mandal & District, without following due process of law.
