Heard Ms.B.Benazur Begum, learned counsel for the petitioner and Mr.TR.Janarthanam, learned Additional Government Pleader, who take notice for the respondents. 3. By consent, the writ petition itself is taken up for final hearing. 4. Paragraph No.9 of the affidavit filed in support of this Writ petition reads as follows: "9. Aggrieved by the orders by the fifth respondent, I filed twenty three corresponding appeals before the fourth respondent. But those appeals are not numbered, thereafter I made representation in person before the fifth respondent several times. In such circumstance the fifth respondent issued me Na.No.5199/2010/B4, dated 09.03.2010 to comply certain defects in the Revision Petition. Thereafter, I complied with the defects and submitted the Revision Petition on 07.04.2010 before the fifth respondent, to that effect I have got Acknowledgement Card." 5. In this Writ petition, the petitioner seeks a direction to dispose of twenty three appeals and consequential relief. In the typed set of papers, at page 34, there is a proceedings of the District Collector, dated 09.03.2010 whereby the petitioner's revision petition has been returned as belated and that an explanation for the delay should be submitted. On failure to submit such explanation, it is stated that the revision petition will be rejected. The petitioner has not produced any material to show that the petitioner complied with the direction of the District Collector in his letter, dated 09.03.2010 and there is no proof to show that twenty three appeals are pending before any authority. 6. The learned counsel for the petitioner further relies upon paragraph No.9 of the affidavit to say that revision petition is pending before the fourth respondent and acknowledgement cards have been enclosed in the typed set of https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/ 3 papers and therefore seeks appropriate orders to dispose of the revision petition. 7. Since the petitioner is not clear as to the status of her claim, the fourth respondent is directed to verify the records and dispose of the revision petition, if it is in order and pending before the said authority. If the revision petition as contended by the petitioner is not on record, the authority shall inform the petitioner and no order need to be passed by the authority. 8. With the above direction, this Writ Petition is disposed of. No Costs.
