THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.32899 of 2010 ORDER: The petitioners claim that they jointly own an extent of Acs.5.21 guntas of land in Survey Nos.364 and 365 of Marupaka Village, Vemulavada Mandal, Sircilla Revenue Division, Karimnagar District. When some disputes have arisen as to the boundaries of the neighbouring survey numbers, they submitted an application on 03.04.2010 to the respondents with a request to cause survey of the land and fixation of boundaries, duly remitting the prescribed fee. The grievance of the petitioners is that no action has been taken thereon. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and the learned Government Pleader for Revenue. The Andhra Pradesh Survey and Boundaries Act, 1923 (for short ‘the Act’) and the Rules made thereunder prescribe the procedure for survey of lands and fixation of boundaries. On submission of an application and payment of prescribed fee, the authority concerned has to undertake the survey and fixation of boundaries. The petitioners state that they have submitted application on 03.04.2010 and so far, no action has been taken thereon. If the application was defective, in any manner, the respondents ought to have informed the same. Hence, the writ petition is disposed of, directing the respondents to conduct survey of the land admeasuring Acs.5.21 guntas in Survey Nos.364 and 365 of Marupaka Village, Vemulavada Mandal, Sircilla Revenue Division, Karimnagar District, within a period of six (6) weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order, if it is permissible under the Act. Further, they may require the petitioners to comply with the deficiencies, if any, in the application. There shall be no order as to costs. _______________________ L.NARASIMHA REDDY,J Dt: 28.12.2010. kdl
