THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE SANJAY KUMAR WRIT PETITION NOS.4095 AND 4102 OF 2009 DATED 16TH MARCH, 2011 BETWEEN Vanchanagiri Murali Krishna and another. …Petitioner And The Joint Collector, Warangal and others. …Respondents THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE SANJAY KUMAR WRIT PETITION NOS.4095 AND 4102 OF 2009 C O M M O N O R D E R The petitioners, being the same in both these writ petitions, complained of the inaction on the part of the Joint Collector, Warangal, the first respondent herein, in passing orders in the revision petitions filed by them against the orders dated 31.12.2008 of the Revenue Divisional Officer, Jangaon, Warangal District, and sought a consequential direction to the first respondent to do so. In both the writ petitions, this Court granted interim stay of dispossession of the petitioners from the lands covered by the proceedings dated 31.12.2008 passed by the Revenue Divisional Officer, Jangaon, Warangal District, for a period of four weeks. These orders however were not extended thereafter. The matters arise under the Andhra Pradesh Rights in Land and Pattadar Pass Books Act, 1971. It is now stated by Sri Y.Rama Rao, learned counsel for the fourth respondent in these two cases, that W.P.No.3125 of 2009, which was filed by the petitioners herein against a similar order dated 31.12.2008 passed by the Revenue Divisional Officer, Jangaon, Warangal District, was disposed of by a learned Judge of this Court by order dated 02.04.2009. A copy of the said order is placed on record and reflects that this Court, while observing that the stay applications filed in the revision could not be kept pending indefinitely, directed the Joint Collector, Warangal, to pass orders on the stay application filed by the petitioners in that revision within a time frame. As mentioned supra, the interim orders granted by this Court expired due to efflux of time. In any event, as the petitioners’ revisions against the orders passed in appeal by the Revenue Divisional Officer, Jangaon, Warangal District, are pending consideration before the Joint Collector, Warangal, it would not be appropriate for this Court to interfere in the matter at this stage. The Writ Petitions are accordingly disposed of directing the Joint Collector, Warangal, to pass appropriate orders either upon the stay applications filed by the petitioners or in the main revisions preferred by them, as the case may be, against the orders dated 31.12.2008 passed by the Revenue Divisional Officer, Jangaon, Warangal District, after giving due opportunity of hearing to all the parties concerned, within two (2) weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. In the circumstances, there shall be no order as to costs. ---------------------------- SANJAY KUMAR, J. 16TH MARCH, 2011. PGS/VGSR
