Taking exception to the preliminary and final notifications issued by respondents No. 1 to 3 acquiring 25 ¾ guntas of land belonging to the petitioner, this writ petition has been filed. 4. Learned counsel for the petitioner on 08.07.2020 submitted before this Court that he would not press the writ petition, if respondents undertake to acquire the extent of land notified and if the name of the petitioner is found in the notification. Accordingly, he was directed to file a memo to that effect.

Learned counsel for * respondent Nos.2 and 3 submits that entire extent of land cannot be acquired and the writ petition itself is not maintainable in view of the fact that the petitioner has represented before respondent No.3 that the Petitioner has no objection for acquiring its land if reasonable compensation is paid. He further submits that petitioner having filed objections to the preliminary notification and also inspection of the land was carried out in the presence of the petitioner cannot now raise an objection that the impugned notifications issued in the name of a dead person are nullity in the eye of law. He further submitted that the impugned notifications were issued notifying the name of the deceased, Muralidhara since his name was reflected in the record of rights as owner as on the date of issuance of preliminary notification and as such the petitioner who has not taken steps to get his name mutated in the record of rights, cannot now say that the impugned notifications are null and void.
