The petitioners claim that they are the possessors and cultivators of agricultural land admeasuring Ac.6.00 guntas comprising Survey No.177 situated at Jelpally Village, Saroornagar Mandal, Ranga Reddy District. They claim that they have been in continuous possession of the land for over 25 years. They submitted an application for regularization and issuance of pattadar passbook/title deed in their favour. Since their application has not been considered by the respondents, they approached this Court with the prayer stated supra invoking the extraordinary jurisdiction under Article 226 of the Constitution of India. 3. Heard learned counsel appearing for the petitioners and learned Government Pleader for Revenue appearing for the respondents. 4. Learned counsel appearing for the petitioners submits that the petitioners have been in possession of the land for over 25 years and therefore, non-consideration of their application for regularization and issuance of pattadar passbook/title in their favour over the land in question is not legal and proper. He further submits that necessary direction is required to the respondents to consider the application of the petitioners and pass appropriate orders. The copies of the applications submitted by the petitioners to the respondents have been placed on record. 5. In that view of the matter, I deem it appropriate to direct the respondents to consider the application dated 19.12.2004 submitted by the petitioners and pass appropriate orders thereon within six weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this Order. 6. Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of. No costs. ______________________ B.SESHASAYANA REDDY, J. Date: 02nd January, 2006. Note: Issue C.C. within a week. B/O cs
