The respondent, having issued notice No.G/549/2006, dated 01-11-2007, fixing the date of enquiry on 17-11-2007, directing the petitioner as well as Bandi Venkateshwara Goud to be present on that day, no enquiry has been conducted and the appeal has not been disposed of so far. I am not inclined to express any opinion with regard to right, title and interest of the petitioner over the land in question and whether there was any illegality on the part of the recording authority in recording rights in the name of Bandi Venkateshwara Goud in respect of the land in question. As the appeal is pending before the respondent, I am of the opinion that it is just and proper to direct the respondent to consider and disposal of the appeal. Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case, the writ petition is disposed of directing the respondent to consider and dispose of appeal No.G/549/06, after giving reasonable opportunity to all the concerned, in accordance with law, as expeditiously as possible, preferably within a period of eight weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. There shall be no order as to costs. ___________ 25-02-2008 Note: Issue C.C. in one week (B/o) Prv ..... REGISTRAR // TRUE COPY // SECTION OFFICER To 1.2CCs to 2.2CD copies Form-NIC-OGS/WP{TRT}
