NISTALA VENKATARAMANAMMA (D) BY LRS. vs JOINT COLLECTOR, VISAKHAPATNAM . — SLP(C) No. 8915/2004

Case Summary: SLP(C) No. 8915/2004 On 01/10/2013, the Supreme Court dismissed the special leave petitions filed by Nistala Venkataramanamma's successors against the Collector, Visakhapatnam. The petitioners had challenged the High Court's dismissal of their land grabbing relief claim under the A.P. Land Grabbing (Prohibition) Act, 1982, which the High Court had deemed premature because the land was declared a slum area and proceedings under the Urban Land (Ceiling & Regulation) Act, 1976 were pending. The Supreme Court upheld this decision, directing the appropriate authority to examine whether pending proceedings under the Urban Land Act could be concluded, and permitting parties to approach relevant authorities under applicable land and slum improvement legislation.
