On the appeal filed by the petitioner, the Revenue Divisional Officer, Tirupati, by proceedings No.783/2003, dated 24-01-2004 cancelled the pattedar pass book and title deed issued in respect of Survey No.14/6 of Basavaiahpalem Village, Thottambedu Mandal, with a direction to the Mandal Revenue Officer, Thottambedu to go through the revenue records and record the statement of the legal representatives of the original pattedar and also peruse the lawful documents produced by the vendees and take appropriate action as per the Record of Rights Act in accordance with law. The grievance of the petitioner is that in spite of the directions issued by the Revenue Divisional Officer, Tirupati in the proceedings dated 24-01-2004, the second respondent-Mandal Revenue Officer, Thottambedu Mandal has not taken any action in the matter. In this regard, the petitioner also made a representation dated 30-06-2004 to the first respondent for issuing necessary direction to the second respondent. But so far, no action is forthcoming. Hence, the petitioner moved this Court by way of present writ petition. If the order passed by the Revenue Divisional Officer, Tirupati has become final and the same has not been challenged by any of the parties, the second respondent is under obligation to conduct enquiry and take appropriate action in the matter as directed by the authority. In view of the same, the second respondent is hereby directed to take appropriate action as directed by the Revenue Divisional Officer, Tirupati in proceedings dated 24-01-2004, within a period of three months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order after due notice to the parties concerned.
