HC stays allotment of lands to societies

Hyderabad, April 21: A division bench of the AP High Court comprising Justice Nooty Rammohana Rao and Justice C.V.Nagarjuna Reddy on Saturday stayed the allotment of lands made to various societies.
The bench was dealing with a batch of writ petitions filed by various individuals questioning the Government’s decision to grant lands for various individual societies in the State.
The bench was mainly dealing with G.O.Ms.No.434 wherein the Government had allotted an extent of 70 acres to journalist society and the bench passed an interim order that such of those respondent societies which have already taken possession of the land shall not make allotment in favour of their individual members and thus create third party interest therein. And if allotments had already been made by some of the societies, no further development by way of improving the existing status of the land shall be taken up by them.
Respondents shall file their counter affidavits by July 25 and reply affidavits shall be filed by August 6 and posted the batch of cases to August 8 for final hearing. A division bench of the AP High Court comprising Justice T.Meenakumari and Justice S.Ashok Kumar on Saturday suspended the G.O.Ms.No.1103 dated 17.8.2007 issued by the Government wherein the Government had decided to absorb 2,151 APSP constables working in Prohibition & Excise Department on deputation and declared as surplus in police department, be absorbed as Prohibition & Excise constables in the existing vacancies in the Prohibition & Excise Department.
A writ petition was filed by around 500 candidates questioning the order of the AP Administrative Tribunal in upholding the above G.O. They stated before the court that around 1700 candidates were selected in all districts in pursuance of recruitment notification issued by the Excise Department for the post of constables in 1994 and that they were not issued appointment orders due to the ensuing elections.
Subsequently, the Government imposed total prohibition and therefore the entire selection was cancelled as the services was not required but on the other hand the Excise Department had deputed nearly 3000 constables and in the process had issued the above G.O. to absorb the APSP constbles without following the direct recruitment procedure on the ground that they were surplus in the polcie department. The bench admitted the writ petition and suspended the above G.O.
