THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S.RAO WRIT PETITION No.9913 of 2010 April 28, 2010 Between: I.Routhu Syamala Devi & others … Petitioners And The Mandal Revenue Officer ... Respondent THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S.RAO WRIT PETITION No.9913 of 2010 ORDER: Petitioners herein filed the instant writ petition seeking a writ of Mandamus declaring the proposed action of the respondent in canceling petitioners’ pattas as illegal and arbitrary. It is the case of the petitioners that the mother-in-law of the first petitioner Routhu Rajamma was assigned land admeasuring Ac.0.82 cents in survey Nos.1086/1 and 1145/3 of East Bapatla Village by proceedings in RC No.12745/69 dt.29.06.1970. Similarly, the mother- in-law of the second petitioner and the father-in-law of petitioners 3 and 4 were also assigned land to an extent of Ac.0.82 cents each in above said survey numbers. They allege that they were also granted temporary pattas. The petitioners apprehend that the respondents are trying to cancel the pattas given to them. Therefore, they filed the instant writ petition. After hearing the counsel for the petitioners and the Assistant Government Pleader for Revenue (Andhra Area), this Court is convinced that the writ petition is filed only on mere apprehension. Admittedly, the predecessors of the petitioners were granted temporary pattas. Permanent pattas are not granted. Therefore, even if really the authorities cancelled the temporary pattas, the petitioners cannot have any grievance as they have a right of appeal to the Revenue Divisional Officer. In the considered opinion of this Court, this writ petition is filed only to pre empt the respondent from taking any action against the petitioners. The writ petition is misconceived and the same is accordingly dismissed. ______________ (V.V.S. RAO, J) April 28, 2010 SUR
