Heard Sri Ali Farooq, learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Assistant Government Pleader for Revenue for the respondents. The only grievance of the petitioner in this writ petition is that the proceedings pending before respondent No.1 after remand under order, dated 18.12.1994 passed by the Commissioner of Survey, Settlement and Land Records, Andhra Pradesh, Hyderabad, are not being disposed of despite lapse of long time. No counter-affidavit is filed on behalf of the respondents. From a perusal of the record, it is clear that after the case was remanded, notices were issued by the Office of respondent No.1 to the husband of the petitioner fixing different dates for enquiries. The last of such notices was issued by the Assistant Director of Survey and Land Records, Sanga Reddy, Medak on 29.01.2003 fixing 18.02.2003 as the date of hearing. Inasmuch as the plea of the petitioner that the enquiry is not conducted and appropriate orders are not passed, is not denied by the respondents, the said plea deserves to be accepted. It is incumbent upon respondent No.1 to hold enquiry and dispose of the case in pursuance of order, dated 18.12.1994 passed by the Commissioner of Survey, Settlement and Land Records, Andhra Pradesh, Hyderabad. Hence, the writ petition is allowed. Respondent No.1 is directed to dispose of the case in terms of order, dated 18.12.1994 passed by the Commissioner of Survey, Settlement and Land Records, Andhra Pradesh, Hyderabad, within a period of three (3) months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order.
