For the Petitioner:MR.KOWTURU VINAYA KUMAR For the Respondent No.: GP FOR REVENUE The Court at the admission stage Made the Following : ORDER: In this writ petition, the petitioner prays for a direction to the 2nd respondent to issue pattadar pass book and title deeds in his favour in respect of the land admeasuring Ac.8-30 guntas in Sy.No.257 and Ac.3- 21 guntas in Sy.No.260 situated at Manidipally village, Saroornagar Mandal, Ranga Reddy District. The case of the petitioner is that he purchased the above mentioned land from one C.Malllesh in the year 1996, but due to some litigation in respect of the land, the same could not be registered and it was got validated on 26-3-2004 by the District Registrar, Ranga Reddy District by collecting the requisite deficit stamp duty and penalty. His grievance is that the 2nd respondent is not taking any action on his application dated 29-3-2004 for mutation of his name in the revenue records. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Government Pleader for Revenue and the writ petition is disposed of at the admission stage. The petitioner has made an application only on 29-3-2004 and without waiting for a reasonable time, he straight away filed the present writ petition praying for a direction to the 2nd respondent. According to the learned Government Pleader for Revenue, normally it takes six months time for the 2nd respondent to dispose of such applications. The petitioner having filed his application only on 29-3-2004 can wait for some more time to get orders on his application. Therefore, the writ petition is disposed of with a direction to the 2nd respondent to pass appropriate orders on the application dated 29-3-2004 filed by the petitioner. __________ 21-6-2004 asp 1 The District Collector Ranga Reddy district, at Lakdi-ka -Pool Hyderabad 2 The Mandal Revenue Officer Saroornagar(M) at Saroornagar, Ragna Reddy Dist 3. 2 C.Cs. to G.P. for Revenue, High Court buildings (O.U.T) 4. 2 C.D. copies
