..... 3.2017 by respondent No.2 and finally penalty order was passed on 31.03.2018, which is from page Nos.29 to 36. Since all the earlier orders had attained its finality, there was no option for the respondents than to take steps for recovery of revenue under the provisions of the Andhra Pradesh Revenue Recovery Act. Accordingly, on 16.08.2019 under Section 27 of the Andhra Pradesh Revenue Recovery Act notice of attachment of property was issued. Since even thereafter, no step was taken, finally sale notices were issued on 26.08.2020, which have been assailed in the present writ petition.
