As the subject lands were coming under submergence of Polavaram Irrigation Project, respondent No.3 issued notification for acquisition of the subject lands publishing the name of respondent No.5 as pattadar and possessor of the subject lands, as the subject lands are the ancestral properties inherited from his father, who is her grandfather. Therefore, she made an application on 20.05.2016 stating that she is entitled to share in the compensation, but

respondent No.4, without issuing any notice to her, is taking steps for conducting enquiry. Aggrieved by the same, the present Writ Petition is filed.
