The Court made the following Order:
Heard the learned counsel for the petitiones and the learned Assistant Government Pleader for Revenue appearing for the respondents. 2. This writ petition is filed questioning the action of the respondent Nos.3 to 5 in trying to dispossess the petitioner from her land in an extent of Ac.0.5770 cents in survey No 979-B, Ac.0.2930 cents in survey No.979B-2, Ac.0.1500 cents in survey No.979B/3B and Ac.0.0100 cents in survey No.979B-1 of Nossam Revenue Village, Sanjamala Mandal, Nandyal District without there being any land acquisition proceedings or any recourse to law, without invoking the provisions of Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act, 2013. 3. The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the 3rd respondent issued notices under Sections 3E (1) & 3H (2) of the National Highways Act, 1956 dated 18.04.2025 informing that the land compensation amount has been fixed as detailed therein vide Award No.40/2023 dated 14.11.2024 and similarly another notice was issued by the 3rd respondent dated 18.04.2025 in respect of the Award No.39 of 2023 informing the petitioner about the details of the compensation awarded. On receipt of the said notices, the petitioner gave representation dated 23.09.2025 seeking equal compensation on par with the neighbors as detailed in the said letter by addressing the same to the 2nd respondent. 4 BKM,J W.P.No.6055 of 2026
4. On the other hand, the learned Assistant Government Pleader relying upon the written instructions of the 3rd respondent dated 04.03.2026 submits that the petitioner received the total compensation for the acquired land long back i.e., more than 6 months ago. The petitioner is not empowered to disrupt the work. If the petitioner is having any compensation issue she has to file petition before the Arbitrator cum District Collector for resolution, instead of filling appeal/ petition before the District Collector cum Arbitrator for resolving the compensation issue the writ petitioner straightaway filed this writ petition making false allegations. 5. In reply, the learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the said award copies Nos.39/2023 dated 14.11.2024 and 40/2023 dated 14.11.2024 are not received by the petitioner and as such she could not take further steps in the matter. 6.
In view of the above said facts and circumstances, the respondent Nos.2 to 4 are directed to furnish the award copies Nos.39/2023 and 40/2023 dated 14.11.2024 to the petitioner, if not already served and the petitioners shall also make necessary effort to receive the same. On receipt of the same, it is open for the petitioner to work out her remedies in accordance with law. The said written instructions of the 3rd respondent dated 04.03.2026 shall be made as part of the Court record. 7. Accordingly, this Writ Petition is disposed of. Interim order if any deemed to have been vacated. There shall be no order as to costs. 5 BKM,J W.P.No.6055 of 2026
As a sequel, Interlocutory Applications pending, if any, shall stand closed. __________________________ JUSTICE B. KRISHNA MOHAN
