THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE C.V. RAMULU WRIT PETITION No.26252 OF 2009 DATED: 03.12.2009 Between: Bomma Ramalingam .. Petitioner And The District Collector, Nalgonda, Nalgonda District and others. .. Respondents ORDER: Petitioner claims that his paternal grandmother gifted him 0.10 guntas of wet land and 0.08 guntas of dry land, thus, totally admeasuring 0.18 guntas of land in Sy.No.984/A1 of Kodad Village and Mandal, Nalgonda District, by way of a registered gift deed dated 18.07.2008. It is the case of the petitioner that, pursuant to the said gift deed, he applied to the 3rd respondent- Tahsildar, Kodad Mandal, Nalgonda District, for mutation of entries in the revenue records pertaining to the said 0.18 guntas of land in his favour, but, surprisingly, the 3rd respondent effected mutation in respect of 0.12 guntas of land only, and the petitioner complains that his requests for rectification of the said action have not been considered by the authorities. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Government Pleader for Revenue appearing for the respondents. It is to be noted that, in exercise of the jurisdiction of this Court under Article 226 of the Constitution of India, it cannot be decided whether the petitioner is entitled for mutation of the entries in the revenue records, in his favour, in respect of 0.12 guntas of land or 0.18 guntas of land. It is always open for the petitioner either to file an application before the 3rd respondent for redressal of his grievance or to approach the 2nd respondent- Revenue Divisional Officer, Suryapet, who is the appellate authority, questioning the impugned action of the 3rd respondent. With the above observations, the writ petition is disposed of. No order as to costs. _________________ JUSTICE C.V. RAMULU 3rd December, 2009. IBL
