After the death of the husband of the first petitioner, the petitioners impleaded in the same and it appears, the competent authority under the Act declared the petitioners as surplus land holders, and accordingly notifications under Sections 10(1) and 10(3) of the Act were issued. In the meanwhile, the Government came forward with G.O.Ms.No.456, dated 29.07.2002, giving option to the surplus land holders to seek regularization of the surplus land by paying appropriate amounts as stipulated therein. The petitioners, so as to avail the same, made representations and also paid a sum of Rs.33,00,000/- on various dates. Their applications were considered by the first respondent, and the matter was referred to the second respondent. It is the allegation of the petitioners that though the first respondent sent the matter to the second respondent, vide letter dated 28.08.2004, no orders are passed till now. Therefore, they seek a direction to the second respondent to dispose of their representations for regularization of surplus urban land. After getting instructions in the matter, the learned Assistant Government Pleader for Revenue (Urban Land Ceiling) submits that in view of the advice of the Regional Vigilance & Enforcement Officer, Hyderabad, not to send regularization proposals till the completion of the Vigilance enquiry relating to illegal encroachments in Survey Nos.115, 116A & 116B of Kukatpally Village, Balanagar Mandal, Ranga Reddy District, the matter could not be disposed of, and the final proposals could not be sent by the first respondent. As alleged by the petitioners, the first respondent has already submitted proposals vide letter No.F1/456/01/2003, dated 28.08.2004, and therefore, there is no question of sending proposals again. Therefore, the second respondent is directed to dispose of the representations of the petitioners as forwarded by the first respondent, and pass appropriate orders in accordance with G.O.Ms.No.456 dated 29.07.2002, within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order.
