The husband of the petitioner purchased the said land under a registered sale deed on 30.09.1941, after obtaining permission from the Revenue Divisional Officer, Peddapuram. Proceedings have been initiated against the petitioner for ejectment on the ground that her possession is in contravention of the provisions of the Andhra Pradesh Scheduled Areas Land Transfer Regulation 1 of 1959 as amended by Regulation 1 of 1970 (for short ‘the Regulation’). The Primary Authority after due enquiry found that the occupation of the petitioner is not in contravention of the provisions of the Regulation. Kakuri Ramanamma-4th respondent challenged the order passed by the primary authority by filing an appeal before the Additional Agent to Government, East Godavari. The Appellate Authority reversed the findings recorded by the Primary Authority and thereby, proceeded to order ejectment of the petitioner from the land in her occupation. The petitioner filed revision before the Government of Andhra Pradesh represented by Principal Secretary, Social Welfare Department-5th respondent. Pending the revision, the Tahsildar, Rajavommangi Mandal, East Godavari District is proceeding with the execution of the order passed by the Appellate Authority. Hence, this writ petition. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Government Pleader for Social Welfare appearing for the respondents 1 to 3 and 5. The factual aspect of pendency of revision filed by the petitioner before the 5th respondent is not in dispute. Such is the situation, I deem it appropriate to dispose of the writ petition with a direction to the 5th respondent to consider the revision and pass appropriate orders as expeditiously as possible, preferably, within a period of four weeks. There shall be status quo with regard to possession, pending disposal of the revision or the interlocutory application seeking stay of the operation of the order passed by the appellate authority, which ever is earlier. __________ 26-06-2008 rkk .....
