THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE R.SUBHASH REDDY WRIT PETITION No.6128 of 2008 ORDER: Though the matter is at the interlocutory stage, on the request made by the learned counsel for the parties, the writ petition itself is taken up for being disposed of by this order. This writ petition is filed with the prayer, which reads as under: “For the reasons stated in the accompanying affidavit the petitioners prays that this Hon’ble Court may be pleased to issue a writ, order or direction, more particularly one in the nature of WRIT OF MANDAMUS declaring the action of the 1st respondent in not passing any order on the revision or in the stay petition filed by the petitioner and the action of the 1st and 2nd respondents in interfering with petitioner’s possession and enjoyment of the land in Survey No.23/F admeasuring Acs.2.00 guntas situated at Ahmedguda Village, Keesara Mandal, Ranga Reddy District and trying to distribute the same in favour of 3rd parties as arbitrary illegal and in violation of the principles of natural justice and by declaring the impugned order passed by the 3rd respondent and the order passed by the 2nd respondent as void abinitio.” Petitioner claims ownership and possession with regard to land admeasuring Acs.2.00 guntas covered by Survey No.23/F situated at Ahmedguda Village, Keesara Mandal, Ranga Reddy District. Alleging that he has violated the provisions of the Andhra Pradesh Assigned Lands (Prohibition of Transfers) Act, 1977 (for short ‘the Act’), the third respondent/primary authority – Tahsildar, Keesara Mandal, Ranga Reddy District, passed order of eviction on 25.06.2005, as against which, the petitioner carried the matter by way of appeal before the second respondent/appellate authority – Special Grade Deputy Collector and Revenue Divisional Officer, East Division, Ranga Reddy District, who in turn, disposed of the said appeal by order, dated 24.09.2007, and that it is the case of the petitioner that as against the order of the appellate authority, a further remedy of revision was availed and the same was filed on 11.01.2008 before the first respondent/revisional authority – Joint Collector, Ranga Reddy District. On 24.03.2008, this Court while admitting the writ petition stayed all further proceedings pursuant to order, dated 25.06.2005, passed by the third respondent in proceedings No.B/1211/2005-1. In the counter-affidavit, while denying various allegations made by the petitioner, it is stated that as the petitioner has violated the provisions of the Act, order of resumption was passed and the appeal filed by the petitioner was dismissed. It is also stated that after resumption, the land in question was divided into plots and house- sites were already handed over to the beneficiaries as per the instructions of the District Collector, Ranga Reddy. With regard to revision filed by the petitioner, there is no denial by the respondents. Under the provisions of the Act, against the order of the appellate authority, there is a remedy of revision before the revisional authority/Joint Collector. As it is the case of the petitioner that he carried the matter by way of revision before the first respondent on 11.01.2008 and as it is stated that the said revision is still pending consideration, I deem it appropriate to direct the first respondent/revisional authority to dispose of the revision filed by the petitioner on 11.01.2008, as expeditiously as possible, preferably, within a period of two (2) months from today. There shall be a further direction that interim order, dated 24.03.2008, passed by this Court shall continue to operate till the revision is disposed of by the revisional authority. Subject to the above directions, the writ petition is disposed of. It is needless to observe that the petitioner shall be given an opportunity of hearing before the revision is disposed of. No order as to costs. ______________________ R.SUBHASH REDDY, J 21st JUNE, 2011. kvni
