IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY

CIVIL APPELLATE JURISDICTION WRIT PETITION NO. 13479 OF 2016 Shri Arun Vitthal Jambhulkar ... Petitioner

Versus

The State of Maharashtra and Ors.

... Respondents Mr. S.M. Sabrad for the petitioner.

Mr. P.P. Kakade, AGP for the respondent State. CORAM : SHANTANU KEMKAR & PRAKASH D. NAIK, JJ.

DATED : DECEMBER 06, 2016.

P.C.

Not on board. Taken on production board in view of the urgency.

2.

The petitioner by this Petition has challenged the acquisition proceedings which were initiated by the Special Land Acquisition Officer. The grievance of the petitioner is that though the acquisition proceedings had lapsed, the entries made in the Revenue record reserving the land for project affected persons have not been deleted.

3.

Heard the submissions made by the learned counsel for

10-wp-13479.2016.sxw the Petitioner. There is no dispute that the acquisition proceedings in respect of the said land have lapsed and a formal notification to that effect is remained to be issued. We, therefore, direct respondent No.2 to direct his officials to delete the entries of reservation from the Revenue record of the land owned by the petitioner as expeditiously as possible and in any case within a period of 6 weeks from today. 4.

The Petition is accordingly disposed of in the aforesaid terms.
