THE HON’BLE MR JUSTICE L. NARASIMHA REDDY Writ Petition No.15984 of 2009 ORDER: The petitioners are parties to the proceedings that are pending before the Joint Collector, Hyderabad, the 13th respondent, under the A.P. (Telangana Area) Abolition of Inams Act, 1955, in respect of land, admeasuring Acs.24.10 guntas, in survey No.1/20 of Asifnagar Revenue Village and Mandal, Hyderabad District. This Writ Petition is filed with a prayer to declare the action of the respondents, other than respondent No.13, in not honouring the order of status quo granted in various proceedings, with reference to the land. It is alleged that respondents 1 to 11 are carrying out constructions over the land in survey Nos.11/2, 17/1B, 1D, 2 and 2A, corresponding to old survey No.1/20 and a prayer is made for restraining them from making constructions. Heard Sri Keshav Hulsurkar, learned counsel for the petitioners, learned Government Pleader for Revenue and learned counsel for respondents 1 to 11. The proceedings, as regards grant of Occupancy Rights Certificate, in respect of the land, referred to above, commenced long back, and an order was passed, by the Revenue Divisional Officer, on 28.06.1978, in favour of one Sri Balaji Singh. After passing through various stages, the proceedings are now pending before the 13th respondent, on a remand made by this Court. It is rather unfortunate that hardly any progress is taking place in those proceedings, on account of the hurdles created by various parties, in one form or the other. The grievance of the petitioners is about the alleged construction being made by respondents 1 to 11. There is a serious dispute, as regards the very identity of the property, and the correlation of old and new survey numbers, on the one hand, and revenue survey numbers and TSLR numbers, on the other hand. This Court appointed an Advocate-Commissioner, through order, dated 07.10.2009. With the help of the Officials of the Survey Department, he undertook an exercise and submitted a report. It is mentioned that several structures are existing in different parts of TSLR No.17/2, corresponding to survey No.3, which, in turn, correlates to survey No.1/10. The subject matter of the proceedings is said to be survey No.1/20, for which revision survey numbers are 43 and 44 and other survey number is 32. In this scenario, this Court cannot record any finding, as to the alleged violation of the order of status quo. This Court has its own doubt about the possibility of the proceedings being disposed of at an early date, in view of the obstacles created by the parties, in one form or the other. All the same, the 13th respondent has to expedite the matter. Hence, the Writ Petition is dismissed, directing that the 13th respondent shall made an endeavour to dispose of the proceedings pending before him, in relation to the land in survey No.1/20 situated at Asifnagar Village and Mandal, Hyderabad District, within a period of three months, from the date of receipt a copy of this order. There shall be no order as costs. _____________________ L. NARASIMHA REDDY, J. Dt.02.02.2010. GJ
