The Hon’ble Sri Justice R.Subhash Reddy Writ Petition No.19658 of 2010 Order: In this Writ Petition, the petitioner seeks declaration, by way of Mandamus, that the action of the respondents in taking steps to dispossess him from the land admeasuring Ac.4-86 guntas covered by Survey No.447/1 of Cheruvumundara Kandriga Village, Gudipala Mandal, Chittor District, as illegal and arbitrary. It is the case of the petitioner that he is a landless poor person; that the aforesaid land was assigned to him; that patta pass book No.29, dated 03-05-1995, and title deed in respect thereof have also been issued and that on 21-08-2008, respondent No.3 issued proceedings in R.O.C.B/93/08 to showcause as to why patta granted to him should not be cancelled on the grounds that he has been residing in foreign country and that his parents are also not residents of Gudipala Mandal. The grievance of the petitioner is that in spite of his submitting a reply thereto on 28-08-2008 itself, no order has so far been passed thereon and the respondents are trying to evict him from the said land. When this Writ Petition came up for admission on 11-08-2010, the same was adjourned to today to enable the learned Government Pleader for Assignment representing the respondents to get instructions in the matter. Today, on written instructions sent by the Tahsildar, Gudipala Mandal, the learned Government Pleader submitted that the land in question was assigned to the petitioner vide DKT patta No.102/4/1402, dated 18-04-1993, and that as the petitioner has been staying in USA and did not bring the said land into cultivation within a period of three years from the date of assignment as per condition No.2 of the said DKT patta, the patta granted in his favour was cancelled by respondent No.3 vide proceedings No.B/93/2008, dated 28-07-2010 and that the said land was also resumed to the Government. As the patta granted in favour of the petitioner was cancelled solely on the ground that he has violated the conditions of grant, the petitioner, if aggrieved thereby, has to avail the remedy of appeal, before the appellate authority as per the Board Standing Orders, questioning the said order of cancellation. At this stage, it is submitted by the learned Counsel for the petitioner that a copy of Order, dated 28-07-2010, is not served on the petitioner. In that view of the matter, , I deem it appropriate to dispose of the Writ Petition directing the respondents to serve a copy of order, dated 28-07-2010, on the petitioner within a period of two weeks from today and to maintain status quo obtaining as on today with regard to possession of the land in question for a period of six weeks from today. However, the petitioner is at liberty to file an appeal against order, dated 28-07-2010, cancelling his patta, and obtain appropriate interim order from the appellate authority. Subject to the above direction, Writ Petition is disposed of. There shall be no order as to costs. _________________ R.Subhash Reddy, J Date: 18th August, 2010 lur
