Counsel for the Petitioner:MR.P.PRABHAKAR RAO Counsel for the Respondent No.: GP FOR REVENUE The Court made the following : THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE L. NARASIMHA REDDY Writ Petition No. 1759 of 2009 Order: The petitioners submitted a representation in December 2008 to the District Collector, the first respondent herein with a request to grant pattadar passbooks and title deeds in their favour in respect of the lands in an extent of Ac.01-02 cents in Survey No.294/1 and Ac.2-23 cents in Survey No.294/2 of Dharmavarappadu village, Jaggaiahpet Mandal, Krishna District, respectively. Their grievance is that no action has been taken on the representation so far. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and the learned Government Pleader for Revenue. This Court cannot give any positive response to assign any particular land, which would depend upon the availability of the lands, policy of the Government and eligibility of the applicants. The first respondent has to examine the representation of the petitioners with reference to the above factors. An early response over the application would be in the interest of all. Hence, the writ petition is disposed of directing the respondents to pass appropriate orders on the representation submitted by the petitioners within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. There shall be no order as to costs. ________________________ L. NARASIMHA REDDY, J. Date: 11.02.2009 Nsr
