THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.23856 of 2010 Date:27.09.2010 Between: K. Kutumba Rao and another ..... Petitioners AND The Government of Andhra Pradesh, represented by District Collector and others. .....Respondents Counsel for the Petitioners: Sri M.V.S. Suresh Kumar Counsel for Respondent Nos.1 to 4: Assistant Government Pleader for Revenue Counsel for Respondent Nos.5 to 9:-- The Court made the following: ORDER: In this writ petition, the short and simple grievance of the petitioners is that contrary to the proceedings dated 07.08.2010 issued by the District Collector, Visakhapatnam, allocating the work pertaining to consideration and grant of pattas in respect of service, minor and private inams to respondent No.4, respondent No.3 has entertained the claims of respondent Nos.5 to 9 for grant of ryotwari pattas under Andhra Pradesh (Andhra Area) Inams (Abolition and Conversion into Ryotwari) Act, 1956. In my opinion, if there is a clear allocation and demarcation of work between respondent Nos.3 and 4 and any of these respondents violate the said allocation, the aggrieved party is entitled to represent to the District Collector and the latter shall examine the same and issue appropriate instructions to respondent Nos.3 and 4 in this regard. In this view of the matter, the Writ Petition is disposed of by permitting the petitioners to make a representation to the District Collector, Visakhapatnam, within a period of two weeks from today. On such representation being made, the District Collector shall examine the same and take a decision within a period of two weeks thereafter as to whether which of respondent Nos.3 and 4 is entitled to hear and dispose of the claims made by respondent Nos.5 to 9. Till such a decision is taken, respondent No.3 is restrained from adjudicating the claims of respondent Nos.5 to 9. As a sequel to disposal of the writ petition, W.P.M.P.No.30528 of 2010 filed by the petitioners for interim relief is disposed of as infructuous. ________________________ C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY, J 27th September, 2010 GHN
