PETITIONERS AND The Joint Collector, Rangareddy District, Khairtabad, Hyderabad. and others. .....RESPONDENTS THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE V.V.S.RAO WRIT PETITION No.9565 of 2006 ORDER: Aggrieved by the proceedings, dated 02.11.2005, of the Revenue Divisional Officer, Vikarabad Division, Ranga Reddy District, issued purportedly under Section 10 of the Andhra Pradesh (Telangana Area) Abolition of Inams Act, 1955 (for short ‘the Act’), issuing the Occupancy Rights Certificate (ORC) in favour of second and third respondents, the petitioner allegedly filed an appeal before the Joint Collector under Section 24 of the Act on 16.03.2006. Alleging that the same is not entertained, the present Writ Petition is filed. The case came up initially on 02.05.2006 and 09.05.2006. The matter was adjourned to enable the learned Assistant Government Pleader for Revenue (General) to get instructions. Learned Assistant Government Pleader submits that no such appeal is pending before the Joint Collector. This is, however, disputed. Therefore, instead of keeping the matter pending for the above background, this Court is of the considered opinion that liberty should be given to the petitioner to present another copy of the appeal personally before the Joint Collector-II, Ranga Reddy District, within a period of one week from today. As and when the same is presented, the Joint Collector shall first consider the grounds urged for condonation of delay in filing the appeal, and then pass appropriate orders. The Writ Petition, with the above observations, is accordingly disposed of. No costs. ____________ (V.V.S.RAO, J) 05.06.2006 vs
