PRAMOD THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 10/06/2008, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: S.SIRI JAGAN, J = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = W.P.(C).No. 17238 OF 2008 = = = = = = = = = = = = = Dated this the 10th day of June, 2008. J U D G M E N T The petitioner challenges Ext.P10 issued by Taluk surveyor, whereby the petitioner has been directed to co-operate for measurement of certain properties for the purpose of fixing the boundaries of a canal puramboke. The petitioner's contention is that the measurement has not been properly taken since part of the property belonging to the petitioner lying adjacent to the canal had earlier been acquired by the Government and without the records of that acquisition, it is not possible to take correct measurements of the properties. I am not inclined to entertain this writ petition at this stage for the following reasons. If those measurements are wrong and if the respondents take any further proceedings on the basis of those measurements, it would be open to the petitioner to challenge those proceedings on all grounds available to the petitioner including his contention regarding correctness of the measurements now taken pursuant to Ext.P10. Without prejudice to such right of the petitioner, this writ petition is dismissed. S.SIRI JAGAN, JUDGE bkn/-
