THE HON’BLE MR JUSTICE L. NARASIMHA REDDY W.P.No.1905 of 2010 ORDER: The petitioners are sons of late K. Pundarikam. It is stated that house No.3-30/1 of Kallakal Villate, Toopran Mandal, Medak District was owned by Punkarikam, and that his name is entered in the revenue records of the Grampanchayat. He is said to have died in the year 2001. The petitioners state that they have approached the Grampanchayat with a request to incorporate their names in the Panchayat records, by way of succession. A decree is said to have been obtained in O.S.No.314 of 2009 from the Court of Principal Junior Civil Judge, Ranga Reddy District, to the effect that the petitioners alone are the legal heirs. They have submitted a representation dated 04-12-2009 to the Executive Officer of the Grampanchayat, the 1st respondent, with a request, not to entertain any claim, as regards the succession to their father. The grievance of the petitioners is that the Panchayat Secretary has not acceded to the request, and they seek a direction to the respondents, in this regard. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners, and learned Standing Counsel for the Grampanchayat. The petitioners wanted to rest their claim on the basis of a decree, obtained from the Court of Principal Junior Civil Judge, Ranga Reddy, in O.S.No.314 of 2009. It is not the one, under the Indian Succession Act. Further, it appears that there are certain rival claims also, in respect of the property. Under these circumstances, this Court cannot compel the respondents to enter the names of the petitioners, as owners of the building, in question. They have to file a suit for declaration, duly impleading the persons, who are opposing their claim, or obtain a decree for succession. Hence, the writ petition is dismissed, leaving it open to the petitioners to work out the remedies in a Civil Court. There shall be no order as to costs. _______________________ L.
