The representation submitted by the appellants seeking re- conveyance of the land was rejected by the Government. The said order was upheld by the learned single Judge. Feeling aggrieved, the appellants are before this Court with this intra court appeal.
2. Heard the learned counsel for the appellants. We have also heard the learned Special Government Pleader on behalf of the respondents.
3. The appellants earlier challenged the land acquisition proceedings before this Court. The writ petitions were dismissed. The writ appeals filed by the appellants were also dismissed. Thereafter, the appellants submitted representation to the Government for re- conveyance. Since follow up action was not taken, the appellants filed W.P.No.1033 of 2012 for a direction to the Government to consider their representation. The competent authority considered the matter pursuant to the direction issued by this Court and rejected the representation on the ground that the Government have already allotted 117 plots to the beneficiaries.
4. The order passed by the Government was put in issue before the writ court. The learned single Judge found that since the Government have already distributed the lands to the beneficiaries, there is no question of re-conveyance. We are therefore of the view that the learned single Judge was correct in dismissing the writ petition.
5. In the up shot, we dismiss the intra court appeal. No costs.
Consequently, connected miscellaneous petition is closed.
