THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V.RAMULU WRIT PETITION No.16677 of 2009 ORDER: This writ petition is filed by the petitioners seeking declaration that the revision petition filed by respondent No.5 herein before respondent No.2 – Joint Collector, Anantapur, is not maintainable. Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the revision petition filed by respondent No.5 is not maintainable in view of the decision reported in THE ARYA VYSYA SANGAM, NEW TOWN, ANANTHAPUR v. THE SETTLEMENT OFFICER, NELLORE[1]. But, when it is brought to his notice the decision reported in DUVVUR RAJA GOPALA REDDY v. DISTRICT COLLECTOR, NELLORE[2], wherein this Court held that once a ryotwari patta has been issued in favour of a person, the question of assigning the same land to another person does not arise, he stated that this writ petition is filed with a misconception. In view of the same and having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case, I am of the opinion that interests of justice would be met if respondent No.2 is directed to dispose of the revision petition filed by respondent No.5, within a period of three (3) months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. However, this will not preclude respondent No.2 from considering the principle laid down in DUVVUR RAJA GOPALA REDDY’s case (2 supra), while deciding the revision petition. With the above direction, the writ petition is disposed of. There shall be no order as to costs. _________________ C.V.RAMULU, J 20th OCTOBER, 2009. kvni [1] 1996(2) ALT 346 [2] 2005(2) ALT 62
