HON’BLE THE ACTING CHIEF JUSTICE BILAL NAZKI AND HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAMESH RANGANATHAN WRIT APPEAL No.981 OF 2007 Date: 12-12-2007. Between : Donavalli Tathayya. …..Appellant. And The District Collector, Krishna District & others. …..Respondents. HON’BLE THE ACTING CHIEF JUSTICE BILAL NAZKI AND HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAMESH RANGANATHAN WRIT APPEAL No.981 OF 2007 ORDER : (Per Hon’ble Sri Justice Bilal Nazki, ACJ) The case of the writ petitioner was that he had purchased land to an extent of 0.09 Acres and his neighbour had encroached upon his land and had disputed the boundaries of the site. The petitioner thereafter, paid the requisite fee and made an application on 11.12.2006 for survey of the land to the Mandal Surveyor i.e. respondent No.3. But his application was not being decided and no survey was being conducted. The learned Single Judge dismissed the petition. Aggrieved by the order, this appeal has been filed. Since the application of the petitioner/appellant is pending for more than a year now, we feel that a direction should have been issued to respondent No.3 to dispose of the application filed by the petitioner in accordance with law. With these observations, we modify the order of learned Single Judge and direct respondent No.3 to dispose of the application of the petitioner/appellant within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. Appeal is accordingly disposed of. _________________ BILAL NAZKI, ACJ 12th December 2007. __________________________ RAMESH RANGANATHAN, J ajr
