THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE RAMESH RANGANATHAN WRIT PETITION No.26231 OF 2011 ORDER: The relief sought for in this Writ Petition is to declare the action of the respondents in making corrections in the survey and settlement records in respect of Survey Nos.7/1 and 7/2 with regards the name of the petitioner’s father and grandfather, as arbitrary and illegal. The petitioner claims that his grandfather was the owner and was in possession of Ac.52-56 cents of land in Survey No.7/1 and Ac.12-69 cents of land in Survey No.7/2; as per the old survey and settlement register the said land was classified as “Gayalu”; thereafter since certain corrections were made in the survey and settlement register, the petitioner had made an application despite which, no action has been taken necessitating him to invoke the jurisdiction of this Court under Article 226 of the Constitution of India. The forum for resolution of disputes such as one which is made in this Writ Petition, is the Civil Court of competent jurisdiction. I see no reason, therefore, to exercise discretion to entertain the Writ Petition. Leaving it open to the petitioner, if he is so aggrieved, to file a Suit before the Civil Court of competent jurisdiction, the Writ Petition is dismissed. However, in the circumstances, without costs. _____________________________ RAMESH RANGANATHAN, J September 20, 2011 MD THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE RAMESH RANGANATHAN WRIT PETITION No.26231 OF 2011 September 20, 2011 MD
