Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the dismissal of the writ petition filed by the appellants under the A.P. Land Grabbing (Prohibition) Act, asserting that the appellants were not parties to the original proceedings and thus lacked standing. The Court emphasized that the appellants' claim of peaceful possession for over 50 years did not confer them any rights against the orders of the Special Tribunal and Special Court. The Court affirmed the High Court's decision, maintaining that the appellants' allegations of collusion were unsubstantiated and did not warrant interference with the lower courts' findings.
