Counsel for the Petitioners:MR.E.MARUTHI RAJA Counsel for the Respondents: GP FOR REVENUE The Court made the following : ORDER: None appears for the petitioners, nor there is any representation on their behalf. Heard the learned Government Pleader for Revenue, appearing on behalf of the respondents. Though the petitioners sought to make claim as they are in joint possession and enjoyment of the land in question i.e., land in S.No.113 to an extent of Ac.1.44 cents for the past more than 70 years i.e., right from their forefathers time, however it has been stated on behalf of the respondents through counter-affidavit that the petitioners’ claim is totally farce one and further land has already been assigned in favour of the assignees. Having regard to the same, petitioners are not in possession. In view of the above, I do not find any merits in the Writ Petition. The Writ Petition is, accordingly, dismissed. No costs. ________________ B.PRAKASH RAO, J. Dated 23-09-2004.
