The petitioners 1 and 2 are stated to be wife and husband respectively. The parents of the 1st petitioner are owners of the lands in an extent of Ac.4.10 guntas and Ac.4.00 in Survey No.528 of Illendu village, under Provisional Patta Certificate. It is stated that at the time of marriage, the parents of 1st petitioner gave Ac.4.00 each in Survey No.528/1 to the petitioners 1 and 2 respectively. The grievance of the petitioners is that when the Banks are insisting for pattadar passbooks as well as the RORs for grant of agricultural loans, they made several representations to the 2nd respondent-Mandal Revenue Officer both in writing as well as oral, in vain. Hence, they filed the present writ petition. Heard the learned counsel for petitioners and learned Government Pleader for Revenue. The contention of the petitioners is that they made several representations, both oral as well as in writing, before the 2nd respondent-Mandal Revenue Officer for grant of pattadar passbooks and RORs to them in respect of the lands in question and till date no action has been taken. But, the petitioners did not file even a single scrap of paper before this Court to substantiate their contention. In the absence of such material, it cannot be said that the respondents are not responding to the request of the petitioners and this Court cannot grant any direction to respondents directing to grant patta certificates to the petitioners. There are no merits in the writ petition and the same is liable to be dismissed. Accordingly, the writ petition is dismissed at the admission stage. No costs. ________________ (N.V.
