THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE V.ESWARAIAH W.P. No. 2313 of 2008 Date:07-02-2008 Between: A. Dharmaiah and another .. PETITIONERS AND The Govt. of A.P. rep. by the District Collector, Ranga Reddy and three others .. RESPONDENTS ORDER: The petitioners seek a writ of mandamus declaring the action of the respondents 1 and 3 in not disposing of the representation dated 04.01.2008 preventing trespassers including the respondents 2 to 4 from encroaching the petitioners’ land admeasuring Ac.30.00 guntas in Sy.No.706 at Jawahar Gram Panchayat, Shameerpet mandal, Ranga Reddy District, as illegal and arbitrary. The nature of the relief claimed by the petitioners is beyond the scope of their representation, dated 04.01.2008. The said representation dated 04.01.2008 has been filed before the Hyderabad Urban Development Authority on 09.01.2008 and the Collector on 22.01.2008. A perusal of the said representation dated 04.01.2008 goes to show that the petitioners 1 and 2 herein and three more others viz. Pushpamma, R.Narsimha and Veeramalla Shankaraiah each of them jointly possess Ac.5.00 guntas of land totaling Ac.25.00 guntas of land in Sy.No.706 situated at Jawaharnagar village, Shamirpet mandal, Ranga Reddy District. The petitioners herein and their fathers/mothers have earlier filed W.P.No.26272 of 2002 against the government, against which an S.L.P. is pending. It is stated that the petitioners are ready to pay Rs.26,000/- per acre for regularization of the land and accordingly requested to give challan for payment of the amount. Therefore, the relief claimed in the said representation is entirely different from the contents stated in the writ petition with regard to the alleged action on the part of the respondents trespassing into the said land. A perusal of the said representation dated 04.01.2008 does not disclose any particulars as to the result of the said W.P.No.26272 of 2002 and the nature of the S.L.P. filed by the government. The only request made in the said representation is to give a challan alone for payment of the amount. Whether the petitioners are entitled for any challan or whether the petitioners are entitled for payment of amount of Rs.26,000/- per acre or not, is a matter for the District Collector or the Tahsildar to consider and dispose of the same. Without expressing any opinion about the merits of the case, the writ petition is disposed of observing that it is open for the first respondent to consider and dispose of the representation dated 04.01.2008 said to have been received by the office of the Collector on 22.01.2008. There shall be no order as to costs. ______________ V.ESWARAIAH, J. Date:07.02.2008 Ccm
