47. Immediately after receipt of copy of order dated 2.4.2013 of Hon'ble the Supreme Court, the petitioners supplemented the objections already filed under Section 5-A of the Act. Judgment of Hon'ble the Supreme Court in Padma Sundara Rao's case (supra) was specifically referred to besides reiterating the plea of discrimination while referring to office notings which supported the case of the petitioners. In addition, it was pleaded that the petitioners were ready and willing to develop the land in conformity with the development plan. Even written submissions were submitted before the Collector. Hearing before the Collector concluded on 20.6.2013. The Collector sent his un-dated report in which some part of the objections raised by the petitioners were dealt with in the form of para-wise reply, whereas certain legal issues, especially the plea of discrimination and the notification under Section 4 of the Act having lapsed in view of judgment of Hon'ble the Supreme Court in Padma Sundara Rao's case (supra), were not even touched.
