Counsel for the Petitioner: MR.P.GANGA RAMI REDDY Counsel for the Respondents: GP FOR REVENUE The Court made the following ORDER: THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY Writ Petition No.5865 of 2009 ORDER: The petitioner claims that he was allotted the land in Survey Nos.79/D, 81/A and 87/B, admeasuring Acs.1.86 cents, Acs.4.53 cents and Acs.1.67 cents, of Kalayakagollu Village, Buchireddypalem Mandal, in a family partition. Stating that he has raised sugarcane crop in the said lands, the petitioner submitted a representation, dated 06.02.2007, before the Tahsildar, Buchireddypalem Mandal, the second respondent herein, with a request to enter his name in the revenue records. When the request was not acceded to, he submitted a representation to the first respondent on 16.02.2009. The grievance of the petitioner is that no action has been taken thereon so far. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Government Pleader for Revenue. In case the petitioner had actually been cultivating the land on the basis of an allotment made to him in a family partition, the respondents are under obligation to make necessary entries in the revenue records. If they entertain any doubt as to the entitlement of the petitioner, they can certainly issue notices to the persons whose names are already entered in the records. There cannot be any justification for the inaction on the representation made by the petitioner. Hence, the writ petition is disposed of directing the second respondent to take necessary action on the representation, dated 06.02.2007, submitted by the petitioner and cause the entries as prayed for, or indicate the reasons for not acceding to the request of the petitioner, within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. There shall be no order as to costs. ____________________ L.Narasimha Reddy, J Dt.26.03.2009 VGB
