THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE R.SUBHASH REDDY WRIT PETITION No.6393 of 2008 Date: 08.11.2010 Between: Syed Jakeer … Petitioner and The Tahsildar, Mandal Revenue Officer, Korutla, M.R. Korutla, Karimnagar District. … Respondent THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE R.SUBHASH REDDY WRIT PETITION No.6393 of 2008 ORDER: Though the interlocutory matters are listed for hearing, at the request of the learned counsel for the parties, the writ petition itself is taken up for final disposal. 2. The petitioners, who are 2 in number, claim to be the owners and possessors of the lands admeasuring Acs.2.00 in Sy.No.1612 and Acs.2.00 in Sy.No.1611, respectively, situated at Korutla Revenue village, M.R. Korutla, Karimnagar District. It is the case of the petitioners that they are the landless poor persons and on the application made by them, the aforesaid lands were assigned to them as per the assignment policy and they were given pattas in respect of the said lands. It is the grievance of the petitioners that inspite of the fact that the petitioners aare in possession of the aforesaid lands by virtue of assignment and issuance of pattas in their favour, there is interference by the respondent illegally to dispossess them from the said lands. Hence, the present writ petition. 3. From a perusal of the counter affidavit filed by the respondent, it is clear that the respondent has admitted the assignment and issuance of patta in respect of the aforesaid lands in favour of the petitioners. However, it is stated that as the petitioners are not using the lands in question for agriculture purpose and violated the condition No.2 of the pattas and hence the land was resumed duly following the due process of law. It is also stated that as the said lands are adjacent to Korutla Urban area, the same is required for housing purpose. 4. Inasmuch as the grant of patta with regard to the aforesaid lands in favour of the petitioners is not in dispute, the respondent cannot interfere with the possession of the petitioners over the said lands. Although it is stated that the petitioners have violated condition No.2 of the pattas, no orders are passed for resumption of the lands on the said allegation. In that view of the matter, in the absence of any such resumption orders, the respondent cannot interfere with the possession of the petitioners over the said lands. 5. As the assignment is admitted and as no orders are passed for eviction of the petitioners from the lands in question, I deem it appropriate to dispose of the writ petition with a direction to the respondent not to interfere or dispossess the petitioners from the lands admeasuring Acs.2.00 in Sy.No.1612 and Acs.2.00 in Sy.No.1611, respectively, situated at Korutla Revenue village, M.R. Korutla, Karimnagar District. However, it is made clear that if there is any violation of the conditions of pattas or that the land is needed for public purpose, this order will not preclude the respondent to take appropriate steps in accordance with law. 6. Subject to above observations and direction, the writ petition is disposed of. There shall be no order as to costs. _______________________________ JUSTICE R.SUBHASH REDDY 08.11.2010.
