Thereafter, he ﬁled an application before the Tahsildar, Pudur Mandal, the 2 nd respondent herein seeking mutation of his name in the revenue records and for issuing pattadar passbooks and title deeds. Pursuant to the said application, an enquiry was conducted during which the 3rd respondent submitted his objections basing on which the application of the petitioner seeking mutation was rejected under memo dated 20-02-2008. Aggrieved by the same, he preferred an appeal before the Revenue Divisional Oﬃcer, Vikarabad who by his order dated 05-07-2008 directed the 2nd respondent to reconsider the matter after perusing the title of the petitioner. In pursuance of the same, the 2nd respondent initiated fresh enquiry and issued notices, but has not passed any ﬁnal order so far. Hence the petitioner ﬁled this writ petition seeking a direction to the 2nd respondent to forthwith pass orders. When the matter came up for admission, the learned Government Pleader for Revenue brought to the notice of the Court that the 2nd respondent has already started hearing of the matter and the case was listed on 16-08-2008, 04-10-2008, 15-10-2008 and 03-11-2008 and that the 3rd respondent ﬁled his objections on 15-10-2008 for which the petitioner had already ﬁled a counter aﬃdavit and the matter was posted to 22-11-2008 for further enquiry and the matter would be disposed of on merits. In view of the said statement made by the learned Government Pleader, the writ petition is disposed of directing the 2nd respondent to dispose of the appeal ﬁled by the petitioner, as expeditiously as possible, preferably within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order.
