Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners as well as the learned Government Pleader for Revenue and at their request the matter is taken up for final disposal at the admission stage itself. According to the petitioners their father Syed Fakruddin was the pattedar, possessor and owner of vast extents of land i.e. 220 acres in survey numbers mentioned above and after his demised, the petitioners succeeded to the estate but due to paucity of funds they could not mutate their names in the revenue records. But however could procure certain documents, which prove the title of their father to the lands and consequently their title to the said lands. It is further stated that a part of the said land has been acquired by the Government for laying outer ring road and when they sought compensation, they were not paid the said amount on the ground that their names were not shown in the revenue records and that necessitated them to file W.P.No.5269 of 2007 before this Court and the said writ petition was closed by this Court observing to approach the civil Court. In that connection, they filed an application before respondents 2 and 3 along with necessary documents to mutate their names in the revenue records in respect of the above mentioned lands but so far no orders have been passed on the said application and therefore they filed the present writ petition. On instructions, the learned Government Pleader submits the petitioners application/revision is still pending consideration with respondents 2 and 3 and that no orders are passed. In the circumstances, without going into the merits of the matter, the Tahsildar, Serilingampally Mandal, the 3rd respondent herein is directed to consider and dispose of the application/revision of the petitioners in accordance with law. With the above direction, the writ petition is disposed of. No costs. N.V.RAMANA,J DT.23.6.2008 msv .....
