JUSTICE C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.8420 of 2001 Between: Nagi Reddy Ravinder Reddy & another. … Petitioners AND The Joint Collector, Ranga Reddy District & others. … Respondents Counsel for the petitioners : Sri Pottigari Sridhar Reddy This Court made the following: THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.8420 of 2001 ORDER:- This writ petition is filed for a writ of Mandamus to set aside proceedings dated 20.04.2001 of respondent No.1. The petitioners approached respondent No.3 for re- conveyance of the land admeasuring Ac.1.49 cents in Sy.No.611 and Ac.6.00 in Sy.No.627 of Devaryamjal Village, Shameerpet Mandal, Ranga Reddy District on the ground that the same was found within the ceiling limit of Smt. Chandramma, the predecessor-in-title of the petitioners. Through Memo No.A/514/2000, respondent No.3 accepted the said request and delivered possession of the lands to the petitioners. Subsequently, respondent No.1 addressed letter dated 20.04.2001 to respondent No.3, wherein he directed the latter to resume the abovementioned lands, as the same were declared as surplus by order dated 10.02.1977 in C.C.No.2082/M/75 and that neither an appeal nor a revision was filed against the said order. At the hearing, Sri Sridhar Reddy Pottigari, learned counsel for the petitioners, fairly submitted that on verification of the record, he has learnt that the statement of respondent No.1 contained in the impugned order that in order dated 10.02.1997 passed in C.C.No.2082/M/75, the abovementioned lands are held to be in excess of the ceiling limit, is correct. In view of the same, I do not find any illegality in the impugned order passed by respondent No.1 and the writ petition is accordingly dismissed. ____________________________ C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY, J Date: 06.03.2009 ES
