The petitioner claims to be one of the shareholders and also the General Power of Attorney holder of other share holders of the dry agricultural land admeasuring of Ac.27.30 guntas of the land in Sy.No.117 of Moinbagh, Shamshabad Revenue Village. It is his case that the 2nd respondent- Tahsidlar, Shamshabad Mandal, without verifying the records, on the basis of the forged documents, incorporated the names of the third parties in the revenue records in the year 1987 and after coming to know the alleged entries, he approached the authorities. His only grievance is that even though he ﬁled the revision before the 1st respondent – Joint Collector, Ranga Reddy in the year 2003 under Section 9 of the Rights in Land and Pattadar Pass Books Act, 1971 seeking to delete the names of the respondents therein from the revenue records in respect of the subject matter of lands, so far the said revision petition has not been disposed of. Today when the matter is taken up, the learned Government Pleader for Revenue on instructions submits that the revision petition ﬁled by the petitioner is still pending before the Joint collector. In the circumstances, the 1st respondent-Joint Collector is directed to dispose of the revision petition ﬁled by the petitioners as expeditiously as possible, preferably, within a period of four months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order after issuing necessary notices to the affected parties. Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of. No costs. N.V.RAMANA,J Dt.4.9.2008 msv .....
