THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S.RAO WRIT PETITION No.12163 OF 2006 20.06.2006 Between: Sirigiri Aruna, W/o.Raghupati … Petitioner AND The District Collector, Karimnagar District And another … Respondents THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S.RAO WRIT PETITION No.12163 OF 2006 ORDER: The petitioner is resident of Sitarampur Village in Karimnagar District. Her father, who is the owner of the land admeasuring Acs.0.06 guntas situated in survey No.42 of Sitarampur village, statedly executed a gift deed in favour of the petitioner in 2004. The petitioner therefore made an application to the District Collector on 20.4.2006 seeking direction to the Mandal Revenue Officer, Karimnagar, (MRO), the second respondent herein, to effect the mutation of her name, in vain. Therefore, the present writ petition is filed. After hearing the learned Counsel for the petitioner and learned Assistant Government Pleader for Revenue (General), this Court is convinced that the petitioner has not approached the proper authority by making an application in Form-I as per Rules 15 and 18 of A.P. Rights in Land and Pattadar Pass Books Rules, 1989 (the Rules, for brevity). For this reason alone, this Court is not inclined to interfere at this stage. It shall be open to the petitioner to approach the MRO and file appropriate application in accordance with the Rules for mutating her name in revenue records in respect of land in survey No.42, if the same still continues to be the agricultural land. As and when such application is made, the MRO shall consider the same, issue notice to all objectors and interested persons, and pass appropriate orders within a period of three months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. The writ petition, with the above observations and directions, is accordingly disposed of. No costs. ______________ (V.V.S.RAO, J) June 20, 2006 YS
