THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE E. DHARMA RAO W.P.No. 17958 of 2005 This writ petition is filed seeking a declaration that the action of the respondents in not disposing of the intimations filed by the petitioner as illegal and for a consequential direction to the 1st respondent to dispose of the intimation dated 29-6-2005 filed by the petitioner and the legal notice dated 4-7-2005 issued by him. The petitioner states that he purchased an extent of Ac. 0-30 guntas and Ac.1-25 guntas, totaling Ac.2-15 guntas, out of Sy.Nos.2 and 4 of Dharoor Village, Jagtial Mandal, Karimnagar District from Chakunta Nagabhushan Rao S/o Bhagwan Rao, Chakunta Muralidhar Rao S/o Govinda Rao and Chakunta Srikanth S/o Ramchandar Rao, the owners and possessors, under a registered sale deed No. 1523/2004, dated 26-8-2004. Thereafter the petitioner under Rule 18 and Section 4(1) of the Record of Rights Act (for short the “Act) submitted intimation of acquisition of the said land in Form No.VI-A to the Mandal Revenue Officer, Jagtial, 1st respondent herein, for mutation in his favour and for issuance of necessary patta pass-book and again after lapse of six months submitted another intimation dated 29-6-2005. The petitioner complains that inspite of his submission of the intimation with regard to the acquisition of the land and for mutation of the same in his favour and issuance of patta pass-book, no action whatsoever is taken by the 1st respondent so far. The petitioner further submits that he issued a legal notice dated 4-7-2005 by enclosing all the necessary and relevant documents to the 1st respondent. The petitioner also submits that though he approached respondents 1 and 2 representing his case, no action whatsoever was taken in respect of mutation and issuance of patta pass-book. Hence, challenging the inaction of the 1st respondent in mutating the land in his favour and in issuing patta pass-book, the petitioner filed the present writ petition. It is apparent that the petitioner has intimated his acquisition of land to the authorities under the Act and requested for mutation of the land in his favour and for issuance of patta pass-book and inspite of his repeated requests no action has been taken by the 1st repondent in that regard. The respondents without there being any objection, since the petitioner has produced all the relevant documents, would have acceded to the request of the petitioner. If the respondents found anything against the mutation of the lands in his favour and issuance of patta pass-book, the same, at the first instance itself, could have informed the petitioner. But they did not do so. Therefore, having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case, I deem it appropriate to direct the 1st respondent to consider and dispose of the intimation dated 29-6-2005 in Form No.VI-A under Rule 18 and Section 4(1) of the Act filed by the petitioner and also the legal notice dated 4-7-2005 issued by him in accordance with law within twelve weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of. No costs. 16th August, 2005 BJ/ IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE OF ANDHRA PRADESH: AT HYDERABAD The Hon’ble Sri Justice E.
