Giri Krishna Counsel for Respondent Nos.1 to 3: G.P. for Revenue Counsel for Respondent No.5: Sri B.V. Bakshi THE HON’BLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE SRI ANIL R. DAVE AND THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V. NAGARJUNA REDDY WRIT APPEAL NO.1324 OF 2009 JUDGMENT: (per the Hon’ble the Chief Justice Sri Anil R. Dave) The appellant – one of the original petitioners has challenged the validity of order dt.27.7.2009 passed in Writ Petition No.25653 of 2000. The only question, which was raised before the learned Single Judge, was with regard to power of the Collector in entertaining a revision under Section 9 of Andhra Pradesh Rights in Land and Pattadar Pass Books Act, 1971 (for short, “the Act”). We have gone through the impugned order and have heard the learned Advocate appearing for the appellant. Under Section 9 of the Act, the Collector is empowered to look into the validity of an order passed by the Mandal Revenue Officer or Revenue Divisional Officer under Sections 3, 5, 5A or 5B of the Act and, in the instant case, the Collector has rightly looked into the validity of an order passed by the Revenue Divisional Officer. The learned Advocate for the appellant wanted to putforth certain other submissions on the merits of the case. As no other argument was advanced before the learned Single Judge and the only argument, which was advanced, has been dealt with by the learned Single Judge, we do not want to go into the other submissions, which have been made by the learned Advocate for the appellant in this appeal. We do not find any substance in the appeal and therefore the appeal is dismissed with no order as to costs. As a sequel to dismissal of the Writ Appeal, W.A.M.P. No.2789 of 2009, filed by the appellant/petitioner for interim relief, is dismissed as infructuous. W.A.M.P. No.2766 of 2009, filed by the appellant/ petitioner for amendment of the cause title, is dismissed, in view of the order dt.10.11.2009 passed in W.A.M.P. No.2563 of 2009. ______________ ANIL R.
