(Judgment of the Court was made by S.M.SUBRAMANIAM, J.)

W.A.Nos.43 and 44 of 2012 have been instituted challenging the writ order dated 20.04.2001 passed in W.P.Nos.16881 and 16882 of 1994 and W.A.No.1834 of 2011 has been instituted challenging the order dated

09.11.2009 passed in W.P.No.22508 of 2009.

2. The writ petitions were instituted challenging Section 6 Declaration made under the Land Acquisition Act. When the writ petitions were taken up for hearing, the learned Counsel appearing on behalf of the Tamil Nadu Housing Board and Special Tahsildar, Land Acquisition, conceded before the Court by stating that the issues are covered by an order of this Court passed in W.A.Nos.20690 to 20693 of 1994. Thus, the writ Court has not adjudicated the facts raised between the parties, and allowed the writ petitions by passing a short order, which would simply state that the respondents made a submission that the issues are covered. Merely on the basis of the single statement made on behalf of the respondents, the writ petitions were allowed.

3. The writ appeals have been instituted by the Tamil Nadu Housing Board and the writ appeals have been admitted by this Court
