THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE ASHUTOSH MOHUNTA WRIT PETITION No.5076 of 2010 ORDER: The petitioner is aggrieved by the action of respondents 2 and 3 in not rectifying the mistake in reducing the extents of his land against Survey Nos.761, 765, 767 and 768 at Mekaguda Village, Kothur Mandal, Mahabubnagar District, and in issuing a false certified copy of the pahani for the year 1992-93 by reducing the extents of his land against each survey number, which is contrary to the original certified copy of the pahani for the same survey numbers obtained in the year 1992 itself. A counter-affidavit has been filed on behalf of respondents 1 and 2 and in para 6 of the said counter-affidavit, it has been stated that the pahani extract submitted before this Court is a tampered one and no record can be rectified on the basis of the same. It has also been stated that the father of the petitioner was entitled to 1/5th share out of the total land. Similarly, the petitioner is also entitled to 1/5th share and the subsequent revenue records are being maintained accordingly. It is submitted that the petitioner has already preferred a civil suit in O.S.No.100 of 2009, which is pending in the Court of the Senior Civil Judge, Mahabubnagar. As the petitioner has already availed the alternative remedy of filing a civil suit, the present writ petition is not maintainable. Nothing stated herein shall be construed as an expression of opinion on the merits of the case. The writ petition is accordingly dismissed. There shall be no order as to costs.
