Counsel for the Petitioner:MR.M.A.K.MUKHEED Counsel for the Respondents: GP FOR REVENUE The Court made the following : ORDER: The petitioner ﬁled the present Writ Petition stating that he inherited the agricultural land admeasuring Acs.14.36 guntas in survey No.144 situated at Mailardevpally Village, Bandlaguda Khalsa Village, Hyderabad and paying the revenue tax since 1950. When the respondents without issuing any notice are trying to dispossess him from the subject land, he ﬁled a suit being O.S.No.76 of 2008 on the file of II Additional Chief Judge, City Civil Court, Hyderabad, for the relief of declaration and perpetual injunction. While the said suit is pending, the respondents again are trying to demolish the constructions made on the subject land. Therefore, he ﬁled the present writ petition seeking a direction to the respondents not to interfere with his possession and enjoyment of the subject land. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner as well as learned Government Pleader for Revenue and at their request the matter is taken up for ﬁnal disposal at the stage of admission. Admittedly, the suit ﬁled by the petitioner against the respondents is pending adjudication before the civil Court and there is no injunction against the respondents. When once the suit ﬁled by the petitioner is pending and there are no interim orders against the Government, it is not appropriate for this Court to entertain the Writ Petition under Article 226 of the Constitution of India. The Writ Petition is devoid of merits and it is accordingly dismissed. However, the petitioner is given liberty to pursue his remedies before the civil Court. No costs. ____________ N.V.RAMANA,J Dated.23.09.2008 GJ
