Counsel for the Petitioners: MR.MOHD. GHULAM HUSSAIN Counsel for the Respondent: GP FOR REVENUE The Court, at the stage of admission, made the following: ORDER: The petitioners claim to be owners and possessors of the land admeasuring Ac.7.07 Guntas situated in Survey No.441 of Devaryamjal village, Shahmeerpet Mandal, Rangareddy District, having inherited the same from their aunt, namely, Har Kunvar Pershad. It is stated that on the application filed by the petitioners, the respondent- Mandal Revenue Officer issued proceedings No.B/703/2002, dated 02.11.2002 to mutate the names of the petitioners in the revenue records in respect of the said land. The grievance of the petitioners is that even after issuance of said proceedings and in spite of their filing application dated 20.02.2004, the respondent-Mandal Revenue Officer has not taken any action to mutate their names as pattadars in the revenue records and to issue pattadar passbooks and title deeds in respect of the land in question. Hence, they filed the present writ petition. Heard the learned counsel for petitioners and learned Government Pleader for Revenue. Both counsel agreed for disposal of the writ petition at the stage of admission. Since the representation of the petitioners dated 20.02.2004 is said to be pending consideration before the respondent-Mandal Revenue Officer, without going into the merits of the matter, I deem it appropriate to dispose of the writ petition with a direction to the respondent-Mandal Revenue Officer to consider the same and pass appropriate orders thereon in accordance with law. With the above direction, the writ petition is disposed of at the stage of admission. No costs. ________________ (N.V. RAMANA, J) Date: 28.12.2004 Nsr/Tvk ....
