AFZULPURKAR WRIT PETITION NO :28407 of 2008 ORDER: Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and the learned Government Pleader. With the consent of both the parties, the writ petition is being disposed of at the admission stage. The grievance of the petitioners is with respect to Acs.3.23 guntas of land forming part of Survey No. 25/1 situated at Petbasheerabad Village, Qutbullapur Mandal, Ranga Reddy District. Petitioners complain that the 4th respondent’s name is wrongly recorded in some of the revenue records and when they have approached for correction of the same, no action is taken by the official respondents. The petitioners have produced the proceedings of the Deputy Collector and Tahsildar bearing No. A/2646/07, dated 10.4.2007 addressed to the Collector, Ranga Reddy District with reference to the application of petitioner No.3. Thereafter, the Collector under his letter No. E5/446/2007, dated 14.6.2007, has called for a detailed report from the Special Grade Deputy Collector & Revenue Divisional Officer. The said report is said to have been sent by the Special Grade Deputy Collector in October, 2007 and further report is also sent by the Deputy Collector on 21.2.2008 vide proceedings No. A/2646/07. Petitioners submit that in spite of the reports being before the Collector, no orders are being passed on the application of the petitioners made in 2005. In the circumstances, I deem it appropriate to dispose of this writ petition by directing the 1st respondent to consider and dispose of the petitioners’ application in the light of the reports submitted to him and on the basis of the material available in the official records, as expeditiously as possible, preferably, within a period of two months from today. The 1st respondent shall hear the affected parties if any, including Respondent No.4 before passing any orders. It is open for the petitioners to make further representation, if they are so advised, so that the 1st respondent will consider the entire matter and pass appropriate and reasoned orders. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of. No costs. _____________________ VILAS V. AFZULPURKAR,J DATE: 29th December, 2008 pnb
