THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY W.P.No.31545 of 2010 Date: 15-12-2010 Between : Kokku Venkateswarlu s/o.Chandraiah and others .. Petitioners and The District Collector, Nalgonda District and others .. Respondents Counsel for petitioners : Sri V.Brahmaiah Chowdary Counsel for respondents : Assistant Government Pleader for Revenue The Court made the following: ORDER: This Writ Petition is filed for a mandamus to declare the action of the respondents in not issuing pattadar passbooks and title deeds in favour of the petitioners in respect of property admeasuring Ac.5-02 guntas, comprised in Sy.No.599 of Kodad village and Mandal, Nalgonda District in pursuance of proceedings dated 17-4- 2008 of respondent No.2 as illegal and arbitrary. The petitioners have pleaded that by the above mentioned proceedings dated 17-4-2008 of the District Revenue Officer, Nalgonda, he has determined the correct extent of the land in Sy.No.599 and that they are entitled to correction of entries in the record of rights and issuance of pattadar passbooks and title deeds in respect thereof. The grievance of the petitioners is that despite their application made to respondent No.3, he has not responded to the petitioners’ request in this regard. At the hearing, Sri V.Brahmaiah Chowdary, learned counsel for the petitioners placed reliance on representation dated 29-6-2010 made by petitioner No.1 to respondent No.3, a reading of which would only show that a request was made to respondent No.3 to survey the land and grant patta in respect of excess land, if any found. The learned counsel fairly conceded that except this representation, no other application has been made for entries in record of rights and issuance of pattadar pass books and title deeds. As the above mentioned representation dated 29-6-2010 does not relate to any correction of entries in the record of rights and issuance of pattadar passbooks and title deeds, the petitioners are required to approach respondent No.3 with a specific application in the prescribed form under the provisions of A.P. Rights in Land and Pattadar Passbooks Act 1971 and the Rules made thereunder. If such an application is received, respondent No.3 shall consider the same and take appropriate action expeditiously. Subject to the above observations, the Writ Petition is disposed of. ___________________________ C.V. NAGARJUNA REDDY.,J Date: 15-12-2010 AM
