The respondents have filed counter neither to the writ petition nor to this appeal. The impugned order has been passed only after hearing the parties.

In these circumstances, we set aside the order of the learned Single Judge and direct the respondents to file counter to the writ petition within two weeks. After the counter is filed, the learned Single Judge shall take up WPMP No.9051 of 2005 again and pass appropriate orders after hearing the parties. Till then, status quo obtaining as on today be maintained by the parties. The writ appeal is accordingly disposed of. No order as to costs. __________________ (Bilal Nazki, ACJ) 7th June, 2005 __________________ (G.Chandraiah,J) Note: Issue C.C by tomorrow B/o vrn To 1 The Joint Collector, Ranga Reddy District at Hyderabad. 2 The Deputy Director, Survey and Land Records Ranga Reddy District at Hyderabad. 3 The Mandal Revenue Officer, Rajendranagar Mandal, Rajendranagar, Ranga Reddy District. 4 Two C.Cs to the Government Pleader for Revenue, High Court of A.P., Hyderabad (OUT) 5 Two C.D copies.
