Counsel for the Petitioner:MR.M.L.ALI Counsel for the Respondents: GP FOR REVENUE The Court made the following : THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S.RAO WRIT PETITION No.27381 of 2008 ORDER: The petitioner statedly purchased Acs.5.01 in Survey No. 545/3 and 545/1 of Pottur Village, Obulanaidupalem in Guntur District from Md. Shakira Begum under registered sale deed dated 21.7.2001. He is allegedly in possession of the property. The petitioner in order to divide the land into plots, approached the third respondent for “No Objection Certificate” (N.O.C.) for conversion of the land into residential purpose so as to make out the lay out. He was informed that the land he purchased was an assigned land. He, therefore, submitted a detailed representation on 13.11.2008 to the District Collector requesting him not to interfere with his possession. He, therefore, filed the instant writ petition. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Assistant Government Pleader for Revenue (Andhra Area). The representation dated 13.11.2008 submitted by the petitioner is by way of a notice. It is issued probably to preempt any action by the third respondent. Be that as it is, the learned Assistant Government Pleader after getting instructions, submits that the petitioner is not in possession of the land and therefore the allegation that the revenue officials tried to interfere with his possession is not correct. He, however, does not dispute that the representation is not disposed of. In view of the above, the writ petition is disposed of directing the District Collector to pass appropriate orders on the representation dated 13.11.2008, if the same is received in his office. The petitioner is also given a liberty to submit a copy of the representation dated 13.11.2008 along with a copy of this order to the first respondent. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of. No costs. ____________ (V.V.S. RAO,J) 23rd December, 2008 pnb
