(Telangana Area) Tenancy and Agricultural Lands Act, 1950 in respect of the schedule land, before him. 3.

Point:- As seen from the impugned order, an application in File No.B/2622/96 was filed by the petitioners herein before the 2nd respondent for sanction of succession of Protected Tenancy rights under Section 40 of the A.P. (Telangana Area) Tenancy and Agricultural Lands Act, 1950 in respect of the schedule land total admeasuring Ac.28-28 guntas situated at Balanagar village and Mandal, Ranga Reddy district. After due enquiry, the Mandal Revenue Officer by order dated 03-01-2001, allowed the said application. Being aggrieved by the said order, the respondents 3 to 17 approached the 1st respondent-Joint Collector, Ranga Reddy district by way of an appeal in Case No.F2/2234/2001 and the Joint Collector by order dated 16-11-2004, while making some observations, set aside the order dated 03-01-2001 in Case No.B/2622/96 passed by the 2nd respondent-Mandal Revenue Officer and remanded the matter to the Mandal Revenue Officer for passing order afresh in respect of Survey Nos.115 old and 22 new, considering the issue whether the provisions of the Tenancy Act are applicable or not, as prayed by the petitioners. It is the grievance of the petitioners that pursuant to the said order dated 16-11-2004 of the 1st respondent-Joint Collector, the 2nd respondent-Mandal Revenue Officer is not taking up the matter for disposal inspite of repeated requests made by them. 5. In the circumstances of the case on hand and in view of the order of the Joint Collector dated 16-11-2004, it is a fit case where a direction shall be given to the 2nd respondent i.e. the Mandal Revenue Officer, Balanagar Mandal, Ranga Reddy district, to dispose of the matter at an early date. 6. Accordingly, the 2nd respondent-Mandal Revenue Officer, Balanagar Mandal, Ranga Reddy district is directed to pass orders afresh as ordered by the Joint Collector, in respect of Survey Nos.115 old and 22 new, by giving an opportunity to both the parties, within a period of six months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. 7.
