THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY WRIT PETITION NO.1275 OF 2010 Dated 21st July, 2010 Between: L.Nagamani and another …Petitioner And The Assistant Divisional Engineer …Respondent Counsel for the petitioner : Ms.G.Sudha Counsel for the respondent: Sri S.V.Ramana for Sri O.Manohar Reddy The Court made the following ORDER: Petitioner No.1 is the sister of petitioner No.2. Both of them claim to be residing in House No.1-27-220, Bapujinagar, New Bowenpally, Secunderabad. According to the petitioners, petitioner No.1 was granted a D-form patta in respect of 51 square yards by the Revenue Divisional Officer concerned vide proceedings G/4357 of 1987. The petitioners have obtained electricity connection for the dwelling house on 06.07.2006. One S.Narasimha appeared to have made a representation to the respondent to the effect that the petitioners have obtained the electricity connection on the basis of the notarised documents and that no D-form patta was granted in favour of either of the petitioners. Acting on the said representation, the respondent issued letter dated 24.12.2008 calling upon petitioner No.2 to establish his right over the property. A reply was submitted by petitioner No.2 on 31.12.2008. The respondent has considered the said reply with reference to letter dated 02.01.2009 addressed by the Revenue Divisional Officer to the effect that no D-form patta was issued in respect of House No.1-27-220 and issued a notice on 26.12.2009 calling upon petitioner No.2 to submit the relevant documents within 15 days from the date of receipt of the notice. Having received the said notice, petitioner No.2 made representation dated 08.01.2010, inter alia, requesting the respondent to grant a month’s time to submit necessary documents and requested not to disconnect the power supply till then. Apprehending disconnection of power supply, the petitioners filed the present writ petition. At the hearing, Ms.G.Sudha, learned counsel for the petitioners, submitted that a D-form patta was granted in favour of petitioner No.1 by the Revenue Divisional Officer, Hyderabad and that her clients are prepared to produce the D-Form patta before the respondent. She stated that as the petitioners apprehended disconnection of the power supply in pursuance of notice dated 26.12.2009, they have filed the present writ petition. The learned Standing Counsel representing the respondent submitted that having submitted to the jurisdiction of the respondent by offering explanation, the petitioners ought not to have filed the present writ petition. He also stated that after the petitioners placed before the respondent the original patta, the respondent is prepared to consider the same and take appropriate decision. In the light of the above submissions of the learned counsel for the parties, I am of the opinion that the writ petition is premature. The petitioners made a request for granting 30 days’ time for producing D-form patta and filed the present writ petition. As no final decision has been taken by the respondent on the issue whether the power supply released in the name of petitioner No.2 shall be continued or not, this Court does not find any issue for adjudication at this stage. Accordingly the writ petition is disposed of by permitting the petitioners to produce the original D-form patta before the respondent, within a period of three (3) weeks from today. The respondent shall consider the patta, if any, produced by the petitioners and take an appropriate decision. Till then, the respondent shall not disconnect the power supply to the premises in question. As a sequel to disposal of main petition, WPMP Nos.1691 and 6453 of 2010 are disposed of as infructuous.
