Andhra Pradesh High Court – Amravati
Nadimpalli Ravi Varma vs The State Of Andhra Pradesh, on 12 June, 2025
THE HONOURABLE SMT JUSTICE KIRANMAYEE MANDAVA
WRIT PETITION NO.14226 OF 2025
ORDER:
Heard the submissions of Sri Chandra Sekhar Ilapakurti,
learned counsel for the petitioners, Sri T.Sanjeevarao, learned
Assistant Government Pleader for Revenue appearing for
respondent Nos.1, to 3, 5 & 6 and Sri U.Kanaka Raju, learned
Government Pleader for Tribal Welfare appearing for respondent
No.4.
2. The grievance of the petitioners is that the respondents
have issued notice dated 02.06.2025 under Section 7 of the A.P.
Land Encroachment Act, 1905 for eviction of the petitioners from
the subject property. Pursuant to the said notice, the petitioners
have submitted their objections. But without considering those
objections, the respondents are trying to evict the petitioners from
the subject land.
3. Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that earlier, this
Court in Writ Petition No.33833 of 2010, directed the respondents
to proceed with the enquiry pursuant to Form-E notices in respect
of the subject property and pass appropriate orders. However,
without passing appropriate orders, pursuant to the directions of
2
this Court in W.P.No.33833 of 2010, the respondents are
contemplating to evict the petitioners from the subject property.
3. Learned Government Pleader for Revenue, on written
instructions, would submit that as per the directions in W.P(Pil)
No.47 of 2025, the District Collector, Alluri Sitarama Raju District
has issued instructions to the Tahsildars to identify and remove
encroachments on objectionable Government lands. Pursuant to
the said directions, the Tahsildar, Addateegala (respondent No.6)
has issued Form-7 notices to the petitioners, who in turn
submitted their explanation stating that LTRP No.116/2010 and
LTRP No.117 of 2010 are pending. He further submitted that
after due enquiry, the Special Deputy Collector (TW)
Rampachodavaram, has passed final orders in LTRP
No.116/2010 and LTRP No.117 of 2010, dated 19.03.2022.
4. Considering the rival submissions, since the respondent
authorities have not passed any final order, pursuant to the notice
issued under Section 7 of the Act, this Court deems it appropriate
to direct the respondents to pass final order after considering the
objections filed by the petitioners.
3
5. Accordingly, the Writ Petition is disposed of directing the
respondents to pass final order after taking into consideration the
objections filed by the petitioners. Till passing of such final order,
the respondents are directed not to dispossess the petitioners
from the subject land. There shall be no order as to costs.
6. As a sequel thereto, interlocutory applications, if any
pending, shall also stand closed.
