THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V. RAMULU WRIT PETITION NO.3338 OF 2009 06.8.2009 Between: Dammisalli Chittamma … Petitioner And The District Collector, West Godavari District, Eluru, and two others … Respondents THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V. RAMULU WRIT PETITION NO.3338 OF 2009 ORDER: The Writ Petition is filed seeking a Writ of Mandamus to declare the action of the respondents in not considering the representations filed by the petitioner on 27.10.2007 and 28.1.2008 as illegal and arbitrary and consequently to direct the respondents to consider the said representations for issuance of patta in respect of the land in S.No.79 of Jangareddigudem Village and Mandal, West Godavari District. According to the petitioner, she has been in possession and enjoyment of Acs.5.30 of dryland in R.S.No.79 of Jangareddigudem Village of West Godavari District, for the last thirty years. In the year 2007, the husband of the petitioner died. During the lifetime of her husband, several representations were made before the revenue authorities for grant of patta in respect of the said land in his favour. But, for the reasons best known to the respondents, no steps were taken. After death of her husband, on 27.10.2007 the petitioner approached the revenue authorities by submitting a representation and the same is still pending. Again on 28.1.2008 the petitioner made another representation to the respondents, which is also pending. In view of the non-consideration of the representations of the petitioner, some landlords of the village have already encroached Acs.2.50 of the land, causing hurdle in the way of the petitioner in enjoying the same. Under those circumstances, without expressing any opinion on merits of the case, the respondents are directed to dispose of the representations purported to have been made by the petitioner on 27.10.2007 and 28.1.2008 for issuance of patta in respect of Acs.5.30 the land in S.No.79 of Jangareddigudem Village of West Godavari District, and pass appropriate orders within a period of three months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order and communicate the same to the petitioner. The Writ Petition is accordingly disposed of. There shall be no order as to costs. ______________ (C.V. RAMULU, J) 06.8.2009 bnr
