THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE M.S.K.JAISWAL W.P.No.23720 of 2011

ORDER

This writ petition is filed with the following prayer: "to issue a writ, order or direction specially one in the nature of writ of mandamus declaring the action of the respondents in trying to encroach the land of the petitioner in Sy.No.1248, Shameerpet Village and Mandal, Ranga Reddy District, without issuing any prior notice, as illegal and arbitrary and violative of principles of natural justice". 2.

During pendency of the writ petition, the writ petitioner died and petitioners 2 to 12 were impleaded as his legal representatives. 3.

When the matter came up for hearing, learned counsel for the first respondent has produced before this Court a letter dated 30.09.2015 stating that during pendency of the writ petition, the land of deceased 1st petitioner in Sy.No.1248, Shameerpet Village and Mandal was acquired by initiating proceedings, but in view of the interim order of this Court directing the parties to maintain status quo, the compensation amount has been kept in the revenue deposit.

4.

Since the respondents had acquired the land in question after following due procedure and the compensation amount was kept in revenue deposit, the cause in the writ petition does not survive for adjudication and the writ petition has become infructuous. 5.

The Writ Petition is accordingly dismissed as infructuous. No order as to costs. Miscellaneous petitions, if any, pending in this writ petition shall stand dismissed.
