JUDGMENT The W.P. is pending in this court for the last three years. Prayer in the W.P. is for direction to the Revenue authorities to effect mutation of property in terms of the Forest Tribunal's award confirmed by Ext.P1 judgment in favour of the petitioner. Government Pleader reported that property in the Revenue records is in the name of some other person who is no more. According to the Government Pleader, petitioner's application was being processed by the Revenue authorities and the latest instruction with the Government Pleader is of 2000. It is not known whether mutation is already effected in favour of the petitioner by now. In any case if petitioner is in ownership and possession of the property and the same is approved by the Forest Tribunal and Division Bench of this court, petitioner is entitled to change the Revenue records consistent with the real position reflected in the judgments. The 5th respondent is directed to make changes in the Revenue records showing the property owned and possessed by the petitioner in his name. The W.P. is disposed of as above.
