According to the petitioner, as there is dispute with reference to the petitioner’s land and the neighbouring lands, civil proceedings have been initiated and still they are pending. However, pending adjudication of the said civil proceedings, the petitioner sought to demarcate his land with the assistance of Mandal Surveyor. Therefore, the petitioner has approached third respondent with representations dated 10.05.2004 and 10.06.2004 by paying necessary fee for demarcation. But, however, the grievance of the petitioner is that respondents 2 and 3 are not taking any steps to comply with his request by ordering and carrying on the survey to demarcate his land. Hence, the present writ petition. 3. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Government Pleader for Revenue. 4.
