Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the appeals against the Andhra Pradesh High Court's order regarding the handling of interlocutory applications in land grabbing cases under the Andhra Pradesh Land Grabbing (Prohibition) Act, 1982. The Court held that the Chairman must first dispose of the interlocutory applications before proceeding with the main case to prevent further delays, emphasizing the need for expediency given the case's long pendency since 1999. The Court clarified that the appellant cannot separately challenge the Chairman's decision on the interlocutory applications from the main opinion.
