Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? No -.- K. KANNAN J.(ORAL) 1. The petitioners claim that the property of about 231 square yards in Mohalla Pathshala in Ward No.15 is a property reserved in common and used as a park by the petitioners and the residents in that Mohalla. The petitioners are not prepared to file any revenue entry showing the character of the property. To a specific query, the counsel would say that there are no revenue entries at all. It is also contended that some of the residents have filed a civil suit for declaration in relation to the property but the suit was dismissed. It cannot by itself mean that this property is treated as common property and vesting with the Panchayat. It is the petitioners' contention that the officials of the Panchayat are conniving with the private respondents and they are trying to give away property to the private respondents. 2. The contentions raised in the petition involve civil right in relation to immovable property and with no proper documents available, C.W.P. No.21019 of 2011 -2- it may not be possible to exercise the jurisdiction under Article 226 of the Constitution. 3. The writ petition is disposed of with liberty to seek redress, if so advised, by means of civil suit in Civil Court of appropriate jurisdiction. (K. KANNAN) JUDGE November 14, 2011 Pankaj*
