HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE R. SUBHASH REDDY Writ Petition No.20239 of 2010 ORDER: Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and also the learned Government Pleader for Revenue appearing for the respondents. In this writ petition, the petitioners, who are 21 in number, seek directions by way of Mandamus to declare the action of the respondents in insisting the petitioners to deliver back the house site pattas granted in their favour in proceedings No.132/1419, dated 08.12.2009, by the third respondent, as illegal and arbitrary. It is the case of the petitioners that as they were not having own house sites and belong to poorer sections of the society, their claims were conceded and house site pattas were granted in respect of the land situated in Survey Nos.237 and 238 of Mukthinuthalapadu Village. In this writ petition, it is the grievance of the petitioners that though they are in possession of their respective plots as per the assignment made, the respondents are insisting to give back the assignment pattas, so as to allot the said plots to third parties. When the matter came up on 17.08.2010 and 24.08.2010, it was adjourned to enable the learned Government Pleader to get instructions. Based on the instructions received, today when the matter is taken up, it is submitted by the learned Government Pleader that there is no interference and that the petitioners were not asked to handover the pattas as pleaded by them. It is further stated that if there is any violation of conditions of pattas granted, steps will be taken to cancel the pattas by following the procedure contemplated under law. From the statement of the learned Government Pleader, it appears that only on apprehension, the petitioners have approached this Court and filed this writ petition. It is stated that the respondents are not insisting for return of house sites allotted to the petitioners. In that view of the matter, I deem it appropriate to dispose of the writ petition placing the said statement of the learned Government Pleader on record. However, it is made clear that if there is any violation of patta conditions by any of the petitioners, this order will not preclude the respondents to take steps in accordance with law. Subject to the above, the writ petition is disposed of. No costs. _____________________ (R. SUBHASH REDDY, J) Dt.25.08.2010. VGB
