HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S.RAO WRIT PETITION No.4980 of 2007 Dated:12.04.2007 Between: Ungu Bayanna. …Petitioner and Mandal Revenue Officer, Santhabommalli Mandal, Srikakulam District, and others. …Respondents HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S.RAO WRIT PETITION No.4980 of 2007 ORDER: The petitioner is a resident of Vallapuram Village, Tekkali Mandal, Srikakulam District. He filed the instant Writ Petition seeking a writ of mandamus directing the second respondent to issue pattas in respect of land admeasuring Ac.0.60 cents in survey No.422 situated at Ijjavaram Village and Ac.0.20 cents in survey No.40 of Patha Naupada Village in Santhabommali Mandal and Tekkali Mandal, Srikakulam District. When the matter was called for preliminary hearing, the learned Assistant Government Pleader for Revenue (General-A) submitted on 05.04.2007 that the request of the petitioner has already been rejected by an endorsement, dated 15.12.2005. This Court, therefore, directed the learned Assistant Government Pleader to produce a copy of the same. Today, the learned Assistant Government Pleader has produced a xerox copy of the endorsement, dated 15.12.2005, rejecting the claim of the petitioner for grant of patta. The learned Counsel for the petitioner submits that the copy of the order allegedly passed by the second respondent has not been communicated to the petitioner. If that be so, this Court observes that as and when the petitioner approaches the second respondent, a copy of the endorsement, dated 15.12.2005 is to be given to him. If the petitioner is aggrieved by the same, he is at liberty to approach the Revenue Divisional Officer, against the rejection order and obtain necessary orders. It is needless to mention that if the petitioner is in possession of the land, he cannot be dispossessed without the due process of law. The Writ Petition, with the above observation, is accordingly dismissed. No costs. ____________ (V.V.S.RAO, J) 12.04.2007 Note:Furnish certified copy by 16.04.2007. (B/o) GJ
