Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision allowing the plaintiffs' appeal regarding the title of land, emphasizing that the transactions were protected under Section 3(5) of the A.P. Assigned Lands (Prohibition of Transfers) Act, 1977. The Court clarified that the original assignment to Sagiraju Bangaramma and subsequent sales to landless poor individuals were valid, and the government must issue a show cause notice before resuming land. The Court ruled in favor of the plaintiffs, affirming their ownership and possession rights over the disputed land.
