Heard Sri I.Koti Reddy, learned counsel for the petitioners, learned Assistant Government Pleader for Revenue (Assignments) and perused the record. The petitioners claimed to have been granted assignments in respect of the above mentioned lands and patttadar pass books and title deeds on the strength of the said assignments. They alleged that the subordinates of respondent No.2 came to the above-mentioned lands and started taking measurements by saying that the said lands will be allotted to third parties. The petitioners’ averred that the respondents cannot deny the lands given to them on assignment so long as the assignment subsists and they pleaded that no orders were ever passed canceling the said assignments. The petitioners, in support of their plea that they were granted assignments, ﬁled copies of D-form pattas. If D-form pattas were granted to the petitioners, they are entitled to enjoy the lands covered under the said pattas so long as the pattas subsist. In the light of the speciﬁc assertion of the petitioners that the assignments have not been cancelled so far to their knowledge, the writ petition is disposed of with a direction to the respondents not to interfere with the petitioners’ possession and enjoyment of the above mentioned lands if they were granted D-form pattas and they have not been cancelled. As a sequel to disposal of the writ petition, WPMP.No.30740 of 2008 ﬁled by the petitioners for interim relief is disposed of as infructuous. _________________________ C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY,J Date:30-10-2008 Note:Furnish copy in two days Bo usd
