THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE RAMESH RANGANATHAN WRIT PETITION NO.21983 OF 2011 ORDER: The relief sought for in this Writ Petition is for a direction to the first respondent to consider the representation dated 08.07.2011 of the first petitioner, represented by her GPA Holder, for conducting survey and demarcating the first petitioner’s land by fixing the boundaries of the said land. The petitioner claims to own 1/3rd share of the land of an extent of Acs.3.35 gts in Survey No.209, and Acs.20.03 gts in Survey No.211, of Malkajgiri Mandal, Malkajgiri, Ranga Reddy District. It is his grievance that respondents 2 and 3 have encroached on the property and, despite several representations, no action is being taken. The remedy which the petitioner has, in case he is aggrieved by any encroachment over his land, is by way of a civil suit before the civil Court of competent jurisdiction. I see no reason to entertain this Writ Petition and adjudicate property disputes in proceedings under Article 226 of the Constitution of India, nor do I see any justification in acceding to the petitioner’s request that his representation for survey of the land be considered. It is always open to the petitioner to seek appropriate relief even in this regard before the civil Court of competent jurisdiction. Leaving it open to the petitioner, if he so aggrieved, to file a civil suit, the Writ Petition fails and is, accordingly, dismissed. However, in the circumstances, without costs. _______________________ (RAMESH RANGANATHAN, J) 4th August 2011 RRB
