Along with him several other persons were also assigned different extents of land in the said survey number and since there were constant differences of opinion by the assignees with regard to the boundaries of the land, he made a representation to the Mandal Revenue Officer, Jukkal on 10.6.2003 to demarcate the land assigned to him and pursuant to the same, the Mandal Surveyor was directed to survey and demarcate the land assigned to him, in vein. Ultimately, the respondents have given dates to the petitioner for conducting survey but, however they have not conducted any survey. Hence this writ petition.
