THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY W.P.No.10967 of 1996 Date:21.03.2006 Between: P.C.Basavaraja -------PETITIONER AND The District Collector and others. ---------RESPONDENTS ORDER: The petitioner challenges the action of the respondents herein in proposing to allot 15 tamarind trees in Sy.No.370 of Pedda Chellaragunta village of Baireddipalli mandal, Chittoor District. The petitioner states that his predecessors have purchased the land in Sy.No.370 along with trees standing thereon and despite the same, the respondents are trying to grant pattas in Form 2-C in favour of third parties as regards the trees on the land. Though several contentions were urged on behalf of the petitioner, this Court is not inclined to deal with the same. The reasons is that the question as to whether the petitioner is the owner of the land and if so, what is the extent of rights he has derived under the sale deeds, can be dealt with only in a civil suit. Disputed questions of fact cannot be adjudicated in a writ petition. For the foregoing reasons, the writ petition is disposed of, leaving it open to the petitioner to work out his remedies in a civil Court in accordance with law. The interim order granted by this Court shall remain in force for a period of four weeks from today. Thereafter, it shall cease to be in force. ___________ 21.03.2006 kdl
