Petitioner No.1 claims to have purchased the land admeasuring Ac.2.26 cents in Sy.No.116/2 of Polasivaripalem, H/o. Aripirala village, Nandiwada Mandal, Krishna District, from petitioner No.2, by way of registered sale deed dated 23.01.2008, and thereafter on 06.09.2008, she made a representation to the 3rd respondent-Tahsildar, Nandivada, Krishna District, for issuance of pattadar passbook in her favour, in respect of the said land. Pursuant thereto, the 3rd respondent issued an endorsement, dated 22.10.2008, stating that one Meruva Veera Raghavamma and Meruva Venkata Bharathamma, the respondents 4 and 5 herein, were already issued pattadar pass books and title deeds bearing Nos.324784 and 324283 respectively over the said lands and, therefore, directed the 1st petitioner to approach the competent authority or to proceed in the civil Court of law to prove her title. Now, the grievance of the 1st petitioner is that aggrieved by the endorsement dated 22.10.2009, she filed an appeal before the 2nd respondent-Revenue Divisional Officer, Gudiwada, on 20.11.2008, but the same is still pending and, therefore, she seeks a direction to dispose of the appeal expeditiously. In the facts and circumstances of the case, without expressing any opinion on merits, the 2nd respondent-Revenue Divisional Officer, Gudiwada, is directed to dispose of the appeal filed by the 1st petitioner, against the endorsement dated 22.10.2008 of the 3rd respondent, within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. However, during pendency of the appeal, the respondents are directed to maintain status quo existing as on today, as to the entries in the revenue records pertaining to the subject land. The writ petition is, accordingly, disposed of. No order as to costs. ______________ C.V.RAMULU,J 17.12.2009 v v
