HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE A.RAJASHEKER REDDY WRIT PETITON No.43877 OF 2017 ORDER:

The grievance of the petitioners is that after issuance of notification under Section 11(1) of the Land Acquisition Act (for short "the Act") the petitioners filed objections and Gramasabha is conducted, but without giving opportunity of hearing under Section 15(2) of the Act, the respondentauthorities issued declaration under Section 19(1) of the Act and also notice under Section 21 of the Act. Aggrieved by the same, the present writ petition is filed.

Learned Government Pleader for Advocate General fairly submits that opportunity will be given under Section 15(2) of the Act.

In view of the same, declaration under Section 19(1) of the Act and all consequential proceedings are set aside.

The respondent-authorities are directed to afford opportunity of hearing to the petitioners and take further action in accordance with law.

Accordingly, the writ petition is allowed to the extent indicated above. However, it goes without saying that if any objections are pending, the respondent-authorities are obligated to consider the same. As a sequel to the disposal of this petition, miscellaneous petitions, if any, pending shall stand closed.
