Counsel for the Petitioner: MR.A.GOPALAKRISHNAMACHARYULU Counsel for the Respondents: GP FOR REVENUE The Court made the following: THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE N.V. RAMANA WRIT PETITION No.22540 OF 2008 ORDER: It is the case of the petitioner that he, along with two others namely Pallapu Vittal and P.Lachiram, purchased agricultural land bearing plot No.22/B, admeasuring Ac.3-00 gts., in Sy.No.36 of Kokapet village, Rajendranagar Mandal of Ranga Reddy District, by way of registered sale deed dated 20.02.2008, and since then they have been continuing in peaceful possession and enjoyment of the said land. It is his further case that himself and the said two others have submitted an application, dated 20.06.2008, to the 2nd respondent- Tahsildar, Rajendranagar Mandal, seeking to issue pattadar passbooks and title deeds of the subject land and to mutate their names in the revenue records, and pursuant thereto, they were directed to appear before the 2nd respondent on 18.08.2008 along with original documents and three photos. While so, his grievance is that though they appeared before the 2nd respondent as directed by him, no enquiry was conducted on the said date and so far no action has been taken on their application. Hence, this writ petition. Today, when the matter came up for hearing, learned Government Pleader for Revenue produced a memo, dated 30.09.2008, issued by the 2nd respondent, whereunder the petitioner was informed that the original pattadars as per pahani for the year 2004-05 pertaining to the subject land are not the vendors in sale deed No.712/08 and, therefore, he was asked to produce the link documents of the subject land for taking further action in the matter. In view of the above, without going into the merits of the case, I deem it appropriate to direct the petitioner to produce the link documents pertaining to the subject land before the 2nd respondent, and, thereupon, the 2nd respondent shall take further action on the application submitted by the petitioner and pass appropriate orders in accordance with law. With the above directions, the writ petition is disposed of. No order as to costs. _____________ N.V. RAMANA,J 16th October, 2008 IBL
