HIGH COURT OF ANDHRA PRADESH :: AMARAVATI MAIN CASE No:. W.P.No.19670 of 2009

SL.<br>NO.	DATE	ORDER
15	28.08.2023	DVSS, J
		Learned<br>Government<br>Pleader<br>on
		instructions states that the matter was again
		referred to the<br>Chief Commissioner of Land
		Administration (CCLA). Learned Government
		Pleader<br>files a<br>letter dated 24.08.2023<br>and
		submits<br>that<br>the issue is now pending<br>before
		the CCLA.
		Learned counsel for the petitioner rightly
		points<br>out that the CCLA and District Collector
		have passed orders<br>earlier for formally<br>handing
		over the<br>alternate land to the writ petitioner on
		exchange basis.<br>He refers to<br>the<br>memo of the
		special<br>Chief<br>Secretary<br>to<br>the<br>Government
		dated<br>08.02.2019<br>wherein<br>the<br>Government
		"accorded<br>permission<br>to<br>hand<br>over<br>the
		alternate<br>land". He also points<br>out<br>a<br>memo
		dated 25.07.2019 which<br>is from the office of
		the Spl.C.S.,<br>Revenue which also clearly states
		permission<br>was<br>accorded<br>to<br>handover<br>the
		alternate<br>land to<br>an extent of Ac.4.76 cents<br>to
		the petitioner. It also gives a further direction
		to make necessary changes in favour of the
		petitioner<br>in<br>the<br>revenue<br>records<br>also.
		Therefore, the learned counsel points<br>out that
		despite orders being passed on<br>the very same

SL.<br>NO.	DATE	ORDER	OFFICE<br>NOTE
		subject matter,<br>the matter is again sent back
		to<br>the<br>Chief<br>Commissioner<br>of<br>Land
		Administration (CCLA).<br>Considering the long
		history<br>of<br>the<br>litigation<br>and<br>that<br>the<br>fact
		quietus<br>is achieved despite the passage of 14
		years,<br>a<br>final direction is given to respondent
		No.1<br>to<br>ensure<br>that<br>the<br>orders<br>of<br>the
		Government<br>given in<br>the memos<br>earlier are
		complied with<br>in<br>letter and spirit within the
		next 15 days.
		Needless to mention,<br>if the orders<br>are
		not complied with, this Court will have to
		exercise its power in<br>summoning the officers
		for giving their personal explanation for the
		delay,<br>despite the earlier orders<br>on the subject.
		In<br>fact,<br>submissions<br>made<br>by<br>the
		learned counsel for the petitioner<br>are<br>that once
		the officers<br>of<br>the rank of the secretary<br>and<br>at
		the<br>highest<br>level<br>of<br>the<br>Government<br>have
		passed<br>orders<br>and<br>necessary<br>direction,
		correspondence<br>should not be entertained<br>and
		the matter should not be<br>delayed.<br>It is<br>hoped,
		that this direction would be complied in letter
		and spirit.
		List<br>on<br>18.09.2023<br>for<br>reporting
		compliance, finally.
