HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE R. SUBHASH REDDY CONTEMPT CASE No.352 of 2011 Date : 07.06.2011 Between : K. Mahesh & others. …..Petitioners And Mr.Ram Shankar Naik, District Collector, Kurnool District & another. …..Respondents HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE R. SUBHASH REDDY CONTEMPT CASE No.352 of 2011 ORDER: This contempt case is filed under Sections 10 to 12 of the Contempt of Courts Act, alleging that the respondents have violated the directions issued by this Court in the order dated 13th August 2010, passed in W.P.No.19007 of 2010. Petitioners in the writ petition claim purchase of certain pieces of agricultural land by way of registered sale deeds from their vendors. It is their case that when they have applied for mutation of their names in the revenue records to the extents of land purchased by them, such representations were not considered. When it was stated that such applications were still pending consideration, this Court, by order dated 13th of August 2010, disposed of the writ petition, directing the respondents to complete the inquiry and communicate to the petitioners, the decision taken on their representations. In this contempt case, it is the grievance of the petitioners that inspite of such a direction, no steps have been taken in the matter. When this contempt case is taken up, the learned counsel for petitioners has produced a copy of the endorsement, dated 22nd of May 2011, issued in Rc.B.1524/2010 by the Tahsildar, Kurnool, rejecting the claim of petitioners. Although it is submitted by the learned counsel for petitioners that no valid reasons have been assigned by the Tahsildar for rejecting their claims, it is not possible for this Court to adjudicate on the correctness of the said order, in this contempt case. In view of the endorsement, dated 22nd of May 2011, rejecting the claim of the petitioners, it cannot be said that the respondents have violated the directions issued by this Court. If the petitioners are aggrieved by the aforesaid endorsement, it is always open for them to question the same before appropriate forum. For the aforesaid reasons, granting liberty to the petitioners to question the endorsement, dated 22nd of May 2011, this contempt case is dismissed. ______________________ R.SUBHASH REDDY, J 7th June 2011 ajr
