NISTALA VENKATARAMANAMMA(D)THR.LRS.&ORS. vs COLLECTOR, VISAKHAPATNAM . — SLP(C) No. 8913/2004

Summary of SLP(C) No. 8913/2004 On 01/10/2013, the Supreme Court dismissed the special leave petitions filed by Nistala Venkataramanamma and others challenging the High Court's dismissal of their land grabbing relief claims. The High Court had found the petitions premature because the petitioners' ownership status depended on pending proceedings under the Urban Land (Ceiling & Regulation) Act, 1976, and the land was declared a slum area. The Supreme Court upheld this decision, directing appropriate authorities to examine whether proceedings under the repealed Urban Land Act could be concluded, and permitted parties to approach relevant authorities under the Land Grabbing, Slum Improvement, and Urban Land Acts as appropriate.
