ORDERB. Prakash Rao, J.1. This case arises out of a reference made by a learned single Judge Sri Justice P.S.

The above aspect is pre-based upon a submission made on behalf of the petitioners herein to the effect that the proviso to Section 47-A of the Act as amended by the Andhra Pradesh Act 8 of 1998 was struck down by this Court as arbitrary and offends Article 14 of the Constitution of India in P.

Therefore, it is the contention of the petitioners that the proviso to Section 47-A(2) of the Act which runs on the same lines both in spirit and substance as that of the proviso to Section 47-A (1) of the Act, necessarily it has to be held as invalid following the ...
