This query is : Resolved
I am trying to regularize my land around 1200 square yards as per AP Govt GO MS 515, they have accepted the money in 2005 but have failed to regularize.
Therafter, I have filed a writ and the court has accepted my plea and asked the Collector to consider application and pass necessary orders. However, the Collector without any powers has rejected my application saying GO has been super-ceded by the present GO MS No 166.
I have filed a writ again in the High Court and the Judge has set aside the orders of the Collector and has passed fresh orders to consider my case by the Revenue Secretary. Rev. Sec has rejected my case saying that the land has been alloted to another corporation in the year 1982 but has been cancelled in 1985 and finally allotted in the year 1991. The govt in all their reports admitted that I am in possession before 1990 according to MRO, RDO reports.The property does not serve any public purpose or approach to the land.
Now my query is with regards to Rev Secretary who has rejected on the basis of the earlier misrepresented report of 1982 allotment made by Govt to the corporation. The Collector has not considering that land was actually allotted in 1991. I am fighting this case since 2003 but in all reports they have never disclosed the allotment to corporation. Even though they have accepted monies and given receipt in 2005. Please guide me how to go about this case with any relevant citations. Can they reject now even after accepting the money paid ? Contempt case is pending. Can I be dispossessed ?

As per the Doctrine of Promissory Estoppel, your case is strong. The govt having received the cost of the land cannot refuse to transfer it now. It is estopped from doing so. You cannot be dispossesed at this stage. Don't worry. Continue with your fight. You shall succeed defeinitely.
