THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY Writ Petition No.26871 of 2010 DT.29.10.2010 Between: K.Ramalingeswar and others. … Petitioners And The Revenue Divisional Officer, Gadwal, Mahaboobnagar District and others … Respondents Counsel for the Petitionerss: Mr.R.Radha Krishna Reddy Counsel for respondent Nos.1 and 2: AGP for Revenue The Court made the following ORDER: ORDER: This writ petition is filed for a mandamus to declare the action of respondent No.2 in removing the names of the petitioners from Record of Rights (ROR) in respect of land Ac.0.16 guntas in Survey No.690 of Gadwal, Gadwal Mandal, Mahaboobnagar District, as illegal, arbitrary and violative of principles of natural justice. At the hearing, Sri R.Radha Krishna Reddy, learned counsel for the petitioners, has not disputed that against the action of respondent No.3, his clients have a right of appeal under Section 5(5) of the A.P. Rights in Land and Pattadar Pass Books Act, 1971 (for short ‘the Act’) to respondent No.1. He has, however, stated that as respondent No.2 has altered entries in the pahani without notice to his clients, they have filed the present writ petition without availing the alternative remedy of appeal. Ordinarily, this Court does not entertain a writ petition filed bypassing alternative remedy of appeal. Though the petitioners have raised the issue relating to violation of principles of natural justice, even this aspect can be raised by them before respondent No.1, who being the Officer superior to respondent No.2, will be in a proper position to appreciate their pleas with reference to the revenue record. In this view of the matter, I am not inclined to entertain the writ petition, at this stage. The petitioners are permitted to file an appeal before respondent No.1. In view of the apprehension expressed by the learned counsel for the petitioner that the respondents may dispose of the property in question, it is directed that the above-mentioned land shall not be disposed of by respondent Nos.3 to 6 for a period of one month. Subject to the above direction, the writ petition disposed of. As a sequel to disposal of the writ petition, W.P.M.P.No.34344 of 2010 filed by the petitioners for interim relief is dismissed as infructuous. (C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY, J) Date: 29.10.2010 VGB
