4. Having heard Mr. Sunil Fernandes, learned Amicus Curiae, Ms. Suruchi Aggarwal, learned senior counsel for the GFIL Committee, Mr. Arijit Prasad and other learned senior counsel/counsel appearing for the parties, we approve the appointment of MSTC Limited and SBI Cap.

5. Insofar as allocation of funds is concerned, our order dated 15.05.2025 makes it clear at clause (xviii) of paragraph 4 thereof that the expenses are to be reimbursed by the GFIL Committee from the funds that are available as and when expenses are incurred by the department for holding e-auction in terms of the directions contained in the earlier order. The GFIL Committee may be approached with an appropriate claim, which shall be duly considered and disposed of.

6. Regarding the difficulties faced by the department for putting up the properties for sale by e-auction, we appreciate and accept the stand that demarcation and identification of the lands are required. Although, there is a prayer made by Mr. Prasad for impleading the Chief Secretary, Telangana, the District Collector, Yadadri Bhuvanagiri and the District Collector, Peddapalli as respondents, we do not propose to implead them at this stage. The aforesaid three officers are civil authorities and in view of the provision in Article 144 of the Constitution of India, they are constitutionally bound to aid and assist in securing compliance of the orders of this Court. We are confident and hopeful that the directions to be passed hereunder will not be observed in the breach but faithfully and honestly implemented by the said officers.

7. The District Collector, Yadadri Bhuvanagiri is requested to demarcate and identify the lands of GFIL Limited measuring more or less 1500 acres in Chouttpal and Bibinagar mandals of Yadadri Bhuvanagriri district by involving the local revenue officers for this purpose. Similarly, the District Collector, Peddapalli is requested to demarcate and identify 847.49 square yards at Ramagundam of Peddapalli district.

8. Since it is reported that only about 164.06 square yards is now presently available out of 847.49 square yards of land originally purchased by GFIL, it has been pointed out by Ms. Aggarwal that transfers made on or after 17.08.2004, in terms of an earlier restraining order dated 05.09.2006 passed by this Court in T.C. (C) No. 02/2004, is liable to be ignored. Notwithstanding the transfers made, we request the district administration of District Peddapalli to demarcate and identify the lands comprised in the entire property of the GFIL Limited measuring 847.49 square yards. If any construction is in progress in any part of the said 847.49 square yards of land, the person raising such construction shall be informed of the pending litigation and appropriately advised not to proceed without the leave of this Court.
