PETITIONERS AND 1 The Government of Andhra Pradesh, Rep. by its Special Grade Deputy Collector and Revenue Divisional Officer, Chevella Division at Attapur, Rajendranagar Mandal, Ranga Reddy District. 2 The Government of Andhra Pradesh, rep. by its Tahsildar, Rajendranagar Mandal, Ranga Reddy District. 3 The Government of Andhra Pradesh, rep. by its Village Revenue Officer, Vattinagulapally Village, Rajendranagar Mandal, Ranga Reddy District. ....RESPONDENTS Petition under Article 226 of the constitution of India praying that in the circumstances stated in the Aﬃdavit ﬁled herein the High Court will be pleased to issue writ, order or direction more particularly, one in the nature of writ of Mandamus declaring the action of the 2nd respondent in not implementing the orders of the 1st respondent passed in Appeal No.C/462/2008, dated 29.02.2008 and not restoring the entries in the revenue records as arbitrary and illegal and consequently, direct the respondents 2 & 3 to restore the entries in the revenue records and pass such other order or orders. Counsel for the Petitioners:MR.S.SATYAM REDDY Counsel for the Respondents: GP FOR REVENUE The Court made the following : ORDER: This writ petition is ﬁled by the petitioners stating that they have purchased the plots in Sy.Nos.187 and 188 of Vattinagulapally Village, Rajendranagar Mandal by way of registered sale deeds and the said survey numbers were shown in the revenue records as ‘house plots’ and no individual owners name is shown. While so, when the 2nd respondent – issued proceedings dated 5.6.2006 directing the 3rd respondent, the then Panchayat Secretary and now the Village Revenue Oﬃcer, Vattinagulapally Village, to delete the entry of house plots and to enter the name of ‘Kharej Khata Bhoodan’ against the said survey numbers, they preferred an appeal under Section 5(5) of the A.P.Records in Land and Pattedar Pass Books Act, 1971 ( ‘the Act’ in short) before the 1st respondent and the same was allowed by setting aside the order dated 5.6.2006 and directed the 2nd respondent to make fresh enquiry by giving opportunity to the appellants and others who are having interest in the said lands and then to pass appropriate orders. The 2nd respondent was also directed to restore the entries in the revenue records in respect of the lands till the disposal of the remanded case. As the 2nd respondent has not restored the entries as per the directions of the 1st respondent, it is stated that the petitioners have also made a representation on 11.8.2008 to implement the orders of the 1st respondent and to restore the entries in revenue records and to ﬁx an early date for conducting enquiry. The grievance of the petitioners is that in spite of the directions of the 1st respondent and even though they made a representation on 11.8.2008, the 2nd respondent is not restoring the entries in the revenue records and hence they filed this writ petition. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and the learned Government Pleader for Revenue and at their request the writ petition is taken up for final disposal. Since the petitioners have already made a representation to the 2nd respondent on 11.8.08 and the same is not disposed of so far, without going into the merits of the matter, the 2nd respondent Tahsildar is directed to consider the representation of the petitioners in the light of the orders passed by the Revenue Divisional Oﬃcer, the 1 st respondent herein on 29.2.2008 and pass appropriate orders as expeditiously as possible, preferably within a period of three months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. With the above direction, the writ petition is disposed of. No costs. N.V.RAMANA,J DT.29.9.2008 msv
