Counsel for the Petitioner:MR.K.SUBRAHMANYAM Counsel for the Respondent No.: GP FOR REVENUE The Court at the stage of admission made the following : ORDER: Respondents 1 to 5 filed an application under Section 3 of the Inams Abolition Act,1956 before the Tahsildar, Narsipatnam alleging that Kondala Agraharam was taken over by the Government as Inam Estate in the year 1950, that they are the owners of the Estate, that their predecessors in interest purchased the land under a registered sale deed dated 27-2-1881, and that the ancestors had dug a fresh water pond in the said land for their exclusive use and it is not a communal tank. Those respondents applied to the Board of Revenue against the action of the Tahsildar in localizing the land contending that it is beyond the scope of the enquiry under Act 26 of 1948. The Board of Revenue directed the said respondents to approach the Tahsildar under the Inams Abolition Act,1956. Eventually, the Revenue Divisional Officer, Narsipatnam in Inam Appeal No.1 of 1999, by the order dated 8.7.2004, issued pattas to the respondents 5 to 15. Aggrieved, the petitioners who are villagers filed a revision before the Commissioner, Appeals, CCLA Office, Hyderabad, on 16-4-2005 along with an application for interim stay of the orders granting patta. As the said application is not disposed of, this Writ Petition is filed by the petitioners. In the circumstances, after hearing the learned Government Pleader, the writ petition is disposed of directing the respondent No.18 to consider and dispose of the said application of the petitioners, for interim orders, expeditiously. No order as to costs. ----------------------- Goda Raghuram, J 03-05-2005 Stp/Km To 1)The Commissioner, Appeals, CCLA Office, A.P.
