2. Heard Sri Bhanu Murthy Bala, learned counsel for the petitioner, learned Assistant Government Pleader for Revenue.

3. Shorn of details, from the averments in the affidavit filed in support of the writ petition and the material placed on record, briefly noted, the facts are as under :

Late Jogesh Bawdi was assigned land to an extent of Ac.1.00 in Survey No.5/130 of Nazrul Nagar village in Kagaznagar Mandal, Komurambheen Asifabad District. This land was claimed to have been purchased by the petitioner by way of an unregistered sale deed; entered into possession and constructed a small dwelling unit. Smt. Lakkirani Bawdi @ Smt. Laxmi Rani Haldar, daughter of late Jogesh Bawdi filed application before the Tahsildar to evict the illegal encroachers from the assigned land and to hand over possession to her. Based on the said application, proceedings were initiated under the Telangana Assigned Lands (Prohibition of Transfers) Act, 1977 (Act 9 of 1977) and notices were served on the petitioner and the complainant. After affording due opportunity, the Tahsildar, Kaghaznagar, passed orders on 24.11.2015 resuming the land to an extent of Ac.1.00 into the Government custody from the petitioner holding that petitioner was an encroacher of the assigned land.

Laxmi Rani Haldar succeeding to the land assigned to late Jogesh Bawdi. The Revenue Divisional Officer has also held that the alleged purchase made by the petitioner on an assigned land was ex facie illegal and therefore affirmed the decision of the Tahsildar. The decision of the appellate authority has become final.

5. Based on the said decision, final notice was issued on 06.04.2021 directing the petitioner to vacate the subject land. In this writ petition, petitioner is challenging the said notice. The notice is challenged primarily on the ground that no reasonable opportunity was afforded to the petitioner before issuing such notice and straight away petitioner cannot be thrown out of the land in her occupation without following the due process of law.

6. If the notice is looked into in isolation, at the first blush the contention urged by learned counsel for the petitioner sounds very attractive and requires acceptance. But, by lifting this cloud on plea of denial o
