THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S.RAO WRIT PETITION No.16849 of 2007 Dated: 13.08.2007 Between: Sabir Hussain Patel. ..... PETITIONER AND The Collector, Medak District, and others. .....RESPONDENTS THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S.RAO WRIT PETITION No.16849 of 2007 ORDER: The petitioner is resident of Hyderabad and having come to know that land to an extent of Acs.5.00 in survey No.23 situated at Kaveli Village, Kohir Mandal, Medak District, belonging to the Government, is proposed to be alienated by the District Collector, he made an application to the District Collector on 30.12.2005. Aggrieved by the inaction of the District Collector in not passing any orders thereon, he filed instant writ petition seeking a writ of Mandamus. In spite of the repeated queries from the Court the learned counsel for the petitioner has not placed any law which confers a right on a citizen to compel the District Collector to sell the Government land to him/her. Indeed if the land value is more than two lakhs, the District Collector is not competent authority. Therefore, the writ petition is misconceived and the same is accordingly dismissed. No costs. ___________ (V.V.S.RAO, J) 13th August, 2007 ghn
