THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.ESWARAIAH CONTEMPT CASE NO.1114 OF 2008 ORDER: The petitioner herein is respondent No.4 in W.P.No.22996 of 2007 which was filed by the 2nd respondent herein to declare the action of the Revenue Divisional Officer, Nagarkurnool, in passing an order in No.K/ROR/76/2006, dated 16.11.2006, setting aside the order of the Tahsildar, Nagarkurnool in ROR/7036/05, dated 14.12.2005, while directing him to record the name of the petitioner herein, Pothula Krishna Reddy in respect of the agricultural land admeasuring Ac.8.05 guntas in Sy.No.270 of Ganyagula Village, Nagarkurnool Mandal, Mahabubnagar District, as illegal. Aggrieved by the said order of the Revenue Divisional Officer, Nagarkurnool, the 2nd respondent herein filed a revision in Revision Case No.D1/80/A/06 before the Joint Collector, Mahabubnagar along with stay application on 24.11.2006 and the same is pending. Thereafter, the said W.P.No.22996 of 2007 was disposed of directing the Joint Collector to consider and dispose of the stay application pending in Revision case No.D1/80/A/06 and pending disposal of the stay application status quo obtaining as on 1.11.2007 with regard to the entries in the revenue records was directed to be maintained. It is stated that the said order of this Court dated 1.11.2007 in the aforesaid writ petition was received by the revenue authorities on 25.2.2008 and before receipt of the order the name of the petitioner herein, Pothula Krishna Reddy was entered in the revenue records on 18.1.2008. Aggrieved by the said action, the writ petitioner/2nd respondent herein filed C.C.No.299 of 2008 which was dismissed on the ground that if there is any record to show that the entries were changed after receipt of the orders of this Court dated 1.11.2007, it is open for the petitioner to obtain certified copies and file a fresh contempt case. Thereafter, the 2nd respondent filed another C.C.No.436 of 2008 stating that the entries in the revenue records were changed after receipt of the orders of this Court dated 1.11.2007 in W.P.No.22996 of 2007. It is stated that necessary corrections were again made deleting the name of the petitioner on 4.7.2008. Therefore, recording the said statement, the said C.C.No.436 of 2008 was closed. However, in the said contempt case the petitioner herein was made as respondent No.4 also appeared and stated that he has filed the present contempt case and he was given liberty to continue his remedies available to him. Heard the petitioner as party-in-person, learned Government Pleader appearing for the revenue authorities and Sri M.Ramalingeswara Reddy, learned counsel appearing for the 2nd respondent. This contempt case is filed contending that the 2nd respondent has played fraud on this Court in obtaining the orders dated 1.11.2007 in W.P.No.22996 of 2007 on the ground that no stay application was pending before the Joint Collector. It is, however, stated that only revision is pending before the Joint Collector in revision case No.D1/80/A/2006. Hence, filing of C.C.Nos.299 and 436 of 2008 is untenable and by virtue of the filing of C.C.No.436 of 2008 alone the name of the petitioner was rectified in the revenue records. The order of this Court in W.P.No.22996 of 2007, dated 1.11.2007, specifically states that status quo obtaining as on 1.11.2007 with regard to the entries in the revenue records shall be maintained. If that be so, the subsequent changes made in the revenue records were rightly rectified and maintained the entries as on 1.11.2007. Therefore, it cannot be said that there was any fraud or misrepresentation. However, if the petitioner is aggrieved by the order of this Court dated 1.11.2007 in W.P.No.22996 of 2007 the petitioner has an alternative remedy either to file a review application or to file appeal against the said order. In view of the same, the contempt case is not maintainable and the same is accordingly dismissed. ________________ V.ESWARAIAH, J. 21.8.2009 kpr
