By the said proceedings, respondent No.1 declared the conversion process in respect of land assigned to the petitioner under DK.No.1/1411 dated 27-03-2002 and also the grant of DKT patta in favour of the petitioner as void. Respondent No.1, however, directed respondent No.2 to initiate fresh proposals for conversion of the land from ‘cattle stand poramboke’ to ‘assessed waste’. At the hearing, Sri Sanisetty Venkateswarlu, learned counsel representing Sri B.Parameshwar Rao, learned counsel for the petitioner, submitted that after the passing of the said order by respondent No.1, the Karavadi Gram Panchayat issued proceedings dated 29-01-2003 converting the nature of the use of the land from ‘cattle stand poramboke’ to ‘assessed waste’. This conversion is obviously intended to grant a fresh patta to the petitioner. The writ petition is, therefore, disposed of with liberty to the petitioner to approach the competent authority for grant of fresh assignment in view of the alleged conversion and on such an application being received, the competent authority shall dispose of the same within a period of eight (8) weeks from the date of receipt of the same.
