THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE N.V.RAMANA WRIT PETITION No.15824 of 2008 ORDER: This writ petition is filed questioning the notice, dated 25.06.2008, whereby the second respondent – Tahsildar, Karimnagar, called upon the father of the petitioner to show cause as to why the land admeasuring Acs.8.30 guntas in Survey No.822/2 should not be resumed to the Government on the ground that he has violated the patta conditions by not cultivating the land, and directed him to submit explanation within a period of seven (7) days from the date of receipt of the notice. The petitioner stated in the affidavit filed in support the writ petition that his father was the absolute owner and possessor of the above-mentioned land in Survey No.822/2 situated at Kothapalli Revenue Village, Karimnagar, and was granted patta and his name was also entered in the Khasra record. He cultivated the said land till his death. Thereafter, the petitioner succeeded to the said property and is in possession and enjoyment of the land in question. He further stated that at the instance of respondents 3 and 4, the second respondent issued the impugned notice, to which, he submitted a reply on 05.07.2007 stating that he is doing cultivation in the land in question. The grievance of the petitioner is that under the guise of the impugned notice, respondents 1 and 2 are trying to dispossess him from the land in question. On 23.07.2008, when the matter came up, this Court admitted the writ petition and considering the grievance of the petitioner that respondents 1 and 2 are trying to evict him from the land in question, issued interim direction to respondents 1 and 2 not to dispossess him from the land in question. Today, when the matter is taken up, the learned counsel for the petitioner stated that the petitioner has already submitted explanation to the second respondent denying the allegations mentioned in the impugned notice and the second respondent has acknowledged the same. Therefore, a direction be given to the second respondent to pass appropriate orders in the matter after considering the explanation submitted by the petitioner. In view of the submission of the learned counsel for the petitioner and considering the fact that the respondents have not filed any counter-affidavit till today, I deem it appropriate to direct respondent No.2 to consider the explanation submitted by the petitioner and pass appropriate orders thereon in accordance with law, expeditiously. Till such time, the interim direction issued by this Court on 23.07.2008 shall remain in force. Subject to the above direction, the writ petition is disposed of. No costs. _________________ N.V.RAMANA, J 18th FEBRUARY, 2010. kvni
