( 1 ) SHRI N. Janardhana Reddy, Honble Chief Minister of the State of Andhra Pradesh, the first respondent herein, delivered a speech at the inaugural function of the Andhra Pradesh Judicial Academy in Secunderabad on 28-7-1991. The following is the relevant portion of speech as reported in the Hindu dated 29-7-1991 :"sometimes, the Chief Minister said, the judiciary was becoming an obstacle in the economic progress of the State by pronouncing arbitrary judgments in cases involving payment of compensation to the land acquired by Government for irrigation and other projects. In some cases, they were raising the compensation rate by 200 per cent (and in one case, it was 1500 times more ). All this resulted in 70 per cent of the cost of the irrigation projects being spent on payment of compensations to land owners. Unfortunately, the land owners were also not getting this increased compensation as they had to shell out half of this amount to their lawyers. This had to be checked and Government should be helped in implementing more projects which would contribute to the economic growth of the State. "
