It is stated that as she was in need of money for her personal necessities, she offered to sell the land and entered into an agreement of sale with one Gopia and Malya and as they failed to pay the sale consideration within the stipulated time, the agreement was cancelled. While the matters stood thus, the 2nd respondent Tahsildar, Kesampeta Mandal issued a notice to her on 24.3.2001 directing her to appear before him on 10.4.2001 along with the relevant documents in regard to incorporation of the names of Gopia and Malya in the revenue records in respect of the subject matter of land since they have purchased the said property. On the said date the petitioner is stated to have appeared and brought all the facts to the notice of the 2nd respondent and subsequently issued a legal notice requesting him to drop the proceedings for incorporating the names of the said agreement holders. But in spite of the said notice, the names of some unconcerned persons were entered in the revenue records by the 2nd respondent and, therefore, she made an application before the 2nd respondent on 19.3.2008 requesting him to furnish the certified copy of the file to enable her to take relevant steps to protect her title. The grievance of the petitioner is that the 2nd respondent by the impugned endorsement dated 5.5.2008 disposed of the said representation stating that the file sought for by the petitioner is not available with him. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner as well as the learned Government Pleader for Revenue. Today the respondent has filed a counter affidavit inter alia stating that since the file sought for by the petitioner was not found in the record room, the impugned endorsement was issued to the petitioner on 5.5.2008 explaining the reasons but after thorough search in the office, the file No.B/347/01, which is sought for by the petitioner has been traced out now and they are willing to furnish a certified copy of the same to the petitioner as requested by her. The impleaded respondents also stated that they have no objection for issuing the certified copy of the file sought for by the petitioner. In the circumstances, the writ petition is disposed of directing the 2nd respondent Tahsildar to furnish a copy of the file sought for by the petitioner within a period of two weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order.
