THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.ESWARAIAH WRIT PETITION No.1897 of 2008 Between: Aluka Jai Hind Reddy. .. PETITIONER and The Special Grade Deputy Collector and others. .. RESPONDENTS THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.ESWARAIAH W.P.No.1897 of 2008 ORDER: It is the case of the petitioner that the land admeasuring Ac.0-25 gts. in Sy.No.618 situated at Lemoor Village, Kandukur Mandal, Ranga Reddy District, was assigned in favour of the petitioner by the then Tahsildar, Maheshwaram, on payment of market value in File Nos.B1/2706/80 and B/1261/85 respectively. It is stated that the Tahsildar is empowered to sell the land as per the orders of the Government in G.O.Ms.No.1406, dated 25- 07-1958 and G.O.Ms.No.1724, dated 26-08-1959. While so, the Revenue Divisional Officer, Ranga Reddy District, passed the impugned order in proceedings No.B/4444/07, dated 16-01-2008, alleging that the Tahsildar, who assigned the land, is not competent to assign the land as per the orders of the Government in G.O.Ms.No.1406, dated 25-07-1958, and a show-cause notice, dated 27-09-2007, has been issued to the petitioner but no explanation has been received and accordingly, the assignment orders in File Nos.B1/2706/80 and B/1261/85 have been cancelled. Learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submits that in fact the show cause notice was not at all served on the petitioner and, therefore, the question of submitting any explanation does not arise. However, when the petitioner came to know that there was an attempt to change entries in the revenue records, the petitioner made a representation before the Collector, Ranga Reddy District, marking a copy to the Revenue Divisional Officer, Ranga Reddy District, on 27-12-2007. But, without considering the said representation, the impugned order has been passed. I am not inclined to express any opinion with regard to the merits of the case. However, there is an effective remedy of revision under Section 166-B of A.P. (Telangana Area) Land Revenue Act, 1317 Fasli, before the Joint Collector, Ranga Reddy District. Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case, the writ petition is disposed of permitting the petitioner to file a revision before the Joint Collector, Ranga Reddy District, within ten days from today. If any such revision is filed within ten days from today, the Joint Collector shall entertain the revision and pass appropriate orders in accordance with law, after giving reasonable opportunity to the petitioner. Pending disposal of the revision, the impugned order shall not be given effect to. There shall be no order as to costs. ___________ 05-02-2008 Note: Issue C.C. by today (B/o) Prv
