THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY Writ Petition No.8357 of 2009 ORDER: The petitioners submitted an application in the year 2008 to the respondent herein with a request to incorporate their names in the revenue records. They pleaded rights in respect of the land admeasuring Ac.1.16 guntas in Survey No.779 and Ac.0.17 guntas in Survey No.811/A of Korramula Village, Ghatkeshar Mandal, Ranga Reddy District by way of succession. Acting on the application submitted by the petitioners, the respondent issued a notice on 10.03.2008 inviting objections. The grievance of the petitioners is that no further steps were taken by the respondent. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and the learned counsel for the respondent. The Andhra Pradesh Record of Rights in Land and Pattadar Pass Books Act prescribes the procedure to be followed in the context of making or altering entries in the revenue records. On receiving the application of the petitioners, the respondent issued notice dated 10.03.2008 in Form-VIII. The proceedings cannot be stopped half way through. Once a notice is issued in Form-VIII, it must entail in either making entries as prayed for or rejection of the application if there exist any reasons. Therefore, the writ petition is disposed of directing the respondent to finalise the steps, in pursuance of the notice dated 10.03.2008 issued by him, on the application made by the petitioner within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. There shall be no order as to costs. _________ 22.04.2009 JSU THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY Writ Petition No.8357 of 2009 Date: 22.04.2009 JSU
