THE HON’BLE Ms. JUSTICE G. ROHINI Writ Petition No. 3202 of 2010 Dated: 22.02.2010 Between: E.Venkateshwarlu and 2 others … Petitioners And The State of A.P., Rep., by its District Collector, Chittoor and 3 others. … Respondents THE HON'BLE Ms. JUSTICE G.ROHINI Writ Petition No. 3202 of 2010 O R D E R : This writ petition is filed aggrieved by the action of the respondents in not entertaining the documents presented by the petitioners for registration in respect of the land in Sy.No.1/1 and 1/2 of Yogimallavaram Village, Tirupati Rural Mandal, Chittoor District on the ground that it was a Government land. I have heard the learned counsel for both parties. The material on record shows that O.S.No.71 of 1980 was filed in the Court of the Principal Subordinate Judge, Tirupathi by the predecessors in title of the petitioners seeking a decree for declaration of title in respect of the land in question. The State, represented by the District Collector, Chittoor was also a party to the suit and after hearing both the parties, the suit was decreed as prayed for by judgment dated 28.02.1990. Aggrieved by the same, though the State preferred A.S.No.102 of 1990 on the file of the Court of the V Additional District Judge, Tirupathi-cum-Family Court, the same was dismissed by Judgment dated 26.08.1997. As against the said judgment, the State preferred S.A.No.1407 of 2003, which stood dismissed by judgment dated 26.12.2003. Learned Government Pleader for Revenue under instructions stated that the said judgment in S.A.No.1407 of 2003 has become final. In view of the decree obtained by the predecessors in title of the petitioners declaring their title to the land in question, it is not open to the 3rd respondent to contend that the land in question is a Government land and therefore, registration of the documents cannot be rejected on that ground. Accordingly, the Writ Petition is allowed with a direction to the 3rd respondent to receive the documents presented by the petitioners in respect of the land in question and process the same in accordance with law. In case, any further objections are there for registration of the documents in question, the same shall be communicated to the petitioners within a period of two weeks from the date of presentation of such document. No costs. _____________ G. ROHINI, J. Date: 22.02.2010 KLP
