THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.1609 of 2009 ORDER: Petitioners 1 and 2 are said to be in possession and enjoyment of Acs.2.40 cents of land each in R.S.Nos.272/5 and 273/3 respectively and petitioner No.3 is said to be in possession of Ac.1.40 cents of land in R.S.No.272/5 of Chillakallu Revenue Village, Dharmavarapadu Panchayat, Jaggayyapet Mandal, Krishna District for the past several years. They state that when they were not being issued pattadar pass books and title deeds, they approached the District Collector, Krishna District, the first respondent herein, with a representation and the latter, in turn, issued proceedings, dated 14.11.2008, directing the Tahsildar, the third respondent herein, to examine the matter. The petitioners complain that no action has been taken so far. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and the learned Government Pleader for Revenue. The petitioners do not claim any ownership rights over the land nor they have been assigned the land so far. In case they are in cultivation and occupation of the land, the nature of their rights has to be verified and necessary steps are to be taken. Further, even when the proposals are taken up for assignment of the land, the case of the petitioners needs to be considered along with the other eligible persons. The eligibility has to be decided with reference to the poverty of the persons concerned. It is not known as to whether any proposals are pending with the third respondent for assignment of the available Government lands. Hence, the writ petition is disposed of, directing that as and when the third respondent undertakes the assignment of the Government land in the village, including those mentioned in the above survey numbers, the case of the petitioners shall also be considered. There shall be no order as to costs. _____________________ L.NARASIMHA REDDY,J Dt:03.02.2009 kdl
