Counsel for the Petitioner: MR.M.JANARDHAN RAO Counsel for the Respondent No.: GP FOR REVENUE The Court made the following: O R D E R : 1. This Writ Petition has been filed by Alluri Venkatarama Raju with a prayer to issue a Writ of Mandamus directing the third respondent to demarcate and fix the boundary stones for Ac.14.10 guntas in Sy.No.338 as per the patta proceedings No.B/2992 dated 19.12.1989. 2. It is the case of the petitioner that he is the owner of Ac.14.10 guntas in Survey No.338 as per the patta granted in his favour vide proceedings No.B/2992 dated 19.12.1989. It is his further case that he submitted an application for demarcation of his land and his application for demarcation came to be rejected on the ground that the survey of the part of the survey number cannot be possible in view of the non- availability of the partly demarcating record. I deem it appropriate to refer the relevant portion of the memo dated 1.5.2004 and it is thus: “ In the reference 1st cited Sri.Aluru Venkata Rama Raju, R/o Turkayamjal is hereby informed that you have applied for demarcation of Sy.No.338/part to an extent of Ac.14-00 gts situated at Tukayamjal village of Hayathnagar Mandal. In the reference 2nd cited the M.S. has reported that the applicant has requested for demarcation of part of Sy.No.338/part situated at Trukayamjal (V) – the M.S.expressed his inability for completion of partly demarcation as the partly record is not available in Mandal Revenue Office and Assistance Director, S & L.R.R.R. District office. Hence the applicant is hereby informed that the demarcation of land cannot be considered in this case.” 3. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the Government Pleader for Revenue appearing for the respondents. 4. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that rejection of the application filed by the petitioner for demarcation of his land is not legal and proper. Learned Government Pleader for Revenue appearing for respondents 1 to 3 submits that in the absence of demarcation record survey, of part of the land is not possible. Keeping in view the submissions made by the learned counsel for the parties, I deem it appropriate to direct the petitioner to submit fresh application for measurement of the entire survey number and thereafter demarcating his land in accordance with the documents on which the petitioner’s claim is based. 5. Accordingly, this writ petition is disposed of. NO costs. Dated: 29-06-2005 ( B.Seshasayana Reddy, J ) tnb ASSISTANT REGISTRAR // TRUE COPY // SECTION OFFICER To 1. The District Collector, R.R.
