THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE RAMESH RANGANATHAN WRIT PETITION No.32319 OF 2011 ORDER: The relief sought for in this Writ Petition is to declare the action of the respondents, in not reopening the road in Survey No.148 situated at Raghuram Nagar Colony, Ibrahimbagh, Golconda Mandal, Hyderabad, as arbitrary and illegal, and to direct the respondents to reopen the road which is existing since long time. When the matter came up on 09.12.2011, Learned Government Pleader for Revenue (Telangana Area) sought time to obtain instructions. Today the Learned Government Pleader would submit that the petitioner purchased a part of land admist private lands; there existed no passage to his plot; therefore he had approached the second respondent seeking that a path be provided for him to reach his plot; and the second respondent had informed him that since the surrounding lands were all private patta lands, they could not interfere in the matter, or lay a road thereupon. The petitioner’s grievance is with regards ingress and egress to his plot which are matters in the private law realm, and for which the remedy is to approach the competent Civil Court, and not by way of proceedings under Article 226 of the Constitution of India. Leaving it open to the petitioner to approach the competent Civil Court for the relief sought for in this Writ Petition, the Writ Petition is dismissed. However, in the circumstances, without costs. _____________________________ RAMESH RANGANATHAN, J December 22, 2011 MD THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE RAMESH RANGANATHAN WRIT PETITION No.32319 OF 2011 December 22, 2011 MD
