Judgment
ORDER The writ petition has been filed seeking issuance of a writ of mandamus directing the respondents to take steps to disburse the compensation amount to the petitioner in respect of the land alleged to have been acquired in Tirupathur District, Vaniyambadi Taluk, Jaffarabad Village, Velathikamani Benda, in Survey Nos.6/3 & 3.
¶2The learned counsel for the petitioner, who appeared in the forenoon session, submitted that though the petitioner's land was acquired, no compensation has been paid so far. When this Court posed a question as to whether any representation was given or compensation has been received by the Page2 of 6 petitioner, the learned counsel sought a short accommodation and hence, the matter was passed over.
¶3When the matter is taken up in the afternoon session, there is no representation on behalf of the petitioner.
¶4The learned Additional Government Pleader appearing for the respondents, by referring to paragraph 8 of the counter affidavit, submitted that as per revenue records, there were no survey Nos.6/3 and 3 in existence in the year 1993. It was further submitted that no such land had been acquired by the respondents as alleged by the petitioner.
¶5I have heard the learned Additional Government Pleading appearing for the respondents and perused the materials available on records carefully.
¶6The respondents have categorically stated that no such Survey Nos.6/3 and 3 are available in the revenue records and the petitioner has also not produced any material to establish that the said lands were acquired by the respondents or that compensation is payable to her. In such view of the matter, Page3 of 6 this Court does not find any merit in the present writ petition to issue a writ of mandamus as prayed for and this petition is devoid of merits and is liable to be dismissed.
¶7Accordingly, this writ petition is dismissed. No costs. Consequently connected miscellaneous petitions are closed. However, if the petitioner has any grievance, she is at liberty to make a representation before the concerned authorities along with all the relevant documents. Upon receipt of such representation, the authorities shall consider the same on its own merits and pass appropriate orders in accordance with law. 04-03-2026 Index: Yes/No Speaking/Non-speaking order MRP To
