THIS WRIT APPEAL COMING ON FOR ORDERS THIS
DAY, P.S.DINESH KUMAR J., DELIVERED THE
FOLLOWING:
JUDGMENT
On the previous dates of hearing, it was argued by
Shri Udaya Holla learned senior advocate that, in respect of
the lands acquired by the MUDA, no compensation was
given and respondents were entitled either for compensation
or for grant of some area of lands. Therefore, the MUDA
may be directed to give alternative lands expeditiously.
2. Shri B.L.Sanjeev, learned Advocate for
caveat/respondents No.7 to 16 had filed a memo dated
08.02.2022, which reads as follows:
"The Respondents furnish herewith the
statement showing their entitlement in lieu of the
land lost by them and with regard to re-
imbursement of the amount spent by them for
formation of storm water drain, which may kindly
be taken on record, in the interest of justice."
3. Today, Shri Vedamurthy, learned advocate for
the appellants has filed an affidavit dated 16.03.2022 sworn
by Shri D.B.Natesh, Commissioner, Mysore Urban
Development Authority, which reads as follows:
"I, Dr. D.B. Natesh, KAS, Senior Scale Officer,
now working as Commissioner, Mysore Urban
Development Authority, Mysore, do hereby solemnly
swear on oath and state as follows:
I submit that the respondent has filed a memo
claiming certain reliefs, in view of the same I am
filing an affidavit to that effect of considering the
same in accordance with law.
I further submit that the Town Planning
Member, MUDA has submitted a report that the
Respondent have not been able to achieve the
required workable area in the lands in question.
I further submit that the Appellant undertakes
to comply the shortcoming of the Respondent by
making necessary amendments in the sanctioned
plan's pertaining to the lands of the Respondent
within three months from the date of approval of the
final layout plan.
In view of the above undertaking, it is prayed
that the memo filed by the Respondent may be
allowed.
I swear in the name of God that this is my
name and signature and the contents of this
Affidavit are true and correct to the best of my
knowledge, belief and information"
4. He further submits that appellants have already
filed a memo seeking to withdraw this appeal. He prays
that this appeal may be dismissed as withdrawn and
assures that the undertaking given in the affidavit filed
today will be complied in three months.
5. In view of the above, nothing further survives
for consideration and the memo filed by the appellants is
ordered accordingly and the appeal stands dismissed as
withdrawn.
6. In view of the disposal of the appeal, all pending
interlocutory applications stand disposed of.
No costs.
