BMC. 36, 204 and 215, Proddutur, Kankipadu mandal, Krishna district for about 30 years and after his demise on 17.8.1992, she being the only heir is in possession and enjoyment of the same. The petitioner alleges that in terms of the directions of the Government, the second respondent- District Collector has prepared a list of eligible land less poor persons for assignment of land, including the name of mother of petitioner but later on without any reason, her name was deleted. The mother of the petitioner died on 31.5.2002.

Since, no action is taken on the said representations and respondents are trying to allot the subject land to others, the present writ petition is filed. Heard the learned counsel for petitioner and learned Assistant Government Pleader for Revenue. Both counsel agreed for disposal of the writ petition at the admission stage directing the respondents to dispose of the representations of the petitioners expeditiously. Having regard to the agreed stand taken by both the counsel, without going into the merits of the matter, I deem it appropriate to dispose of the writ petition, directing the second respondent to consider the representations of the petitioner dated 17.11.2007, 18.12.2007 and 23.2.2008 and pass appropriate orders, in accordance with law expeditiously. Till such time, the respondents shall not alienate or allot the subject land to any third parties. Subject to above, the writ petition is disposed of.
