THE HON’BLE MR JUSTICE L. NARASIMHA REDDY Writ Petition No.8753 of 2009 ORDER: Petitioners claim to be the owners of Ac.17.25 guntas of land in Sy.Nos.255, 257, 258 and 260 of Puppalaguda Village, Rajendranagar Mandal, Ranga Reddy District. They complain that the respondent is preventing the development activity over the land. Reference is made to a notice dated 05-07-2008 issued by the respondent, directing restoration of full tank level (FTL) of the Muskin tank, in the immediate neighbourhood, as well as the reply dated 06- 07-2008 given thereto. The petitioners contend that a survey was already conducted in January, 2009, and the FTL of the tank was demarcated only in Sy.No.259. The petitioners complain that, despite the same, the respondent is interfering with the activity. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners, and learned Government Pleader for Revenue. The lands owned by the petitioners adjoin an irrigation tank. There appears to be some uncertainty as regards the area covered by the tank, at its FTL. After conducting inspection, the respondent issued letter dated 24-01-2009 stating that the contour of + 531.20 m is surveyed, and points have been located in the bed of the tank. However, the details thereof are not immediately before this Court. Fixation of the boundaries of the tank at its FTL, with physical identification marks would go a long way in determining the rights of the parties. The hydraulic particulars of the tank maintained by the concerned department are also required to be taken into account. Hence, the writ petition is disposed of, directing the respondent to cause inspection and survey of the tank, with reference to the hydraulic particulars of the tank, duly ensuring participation of the authorities of the irrigation department, and to pass a detailed reasoned order, on the explanation dated 06-07-2008, submitted by the petitioners. This exercise shall be completed within a period of three months. In the meanwhile, neither the petitioners shall fill the area in question, nor the respondent shall alter the nature of the land. There shall be no order as to costs. _______________________ L. NARASIMHA REDDY, J. Dt.27-04-2009. KO
