Counsel for the Petitioner: MR.S.SRINIVAS REDDY Counsel for the Respondent: GP FOR REVENUE The Court at the stage of admission made the following: ORDER: This writ petition is filed questioning the alleged inaction of the respondent in implementing the orders issued by the Government in Memo.No.83777/Assn.III(3)/93-9, dated 03-04-1996 and Memo.No.76019/Assn.V.2/2002-7, dated 29-04-2004 for grant of permission for alienating an extent of Ac.3.23 guntas of land belonging to the petitioner situated in Sy.No.25/1 of Petbasheerabad Village, Qutubullapur Mandal, Ranga Reddy District. The petitioner states that he made a representation dated 08-11-2004 to the respondent requesting him to grant permission as sought by him in terms of the orders of the Government in Memos dated 03-04-1996 and 29-04-2004, however, the respondent failed to consider and no orders have been passed, so far. The learned Government Pleader, under instructions, states that since a Writ Appeal relating to the same subject matter is pending before this Court, the issue is sub- judice. That apart, since admittedly the land is assigned land, transfer of such land is not permissible under law. Be that as it may, since the representation of the petitioner dated 08-11-2004 is pending before the respondent, without expressing any opinion as to the entitlement of the petitioner for transfer of the land as sought by him, the writ petition is disposed of with a direction to the respondent to consider the representation of the petitioner dated 8-11-2004 and pass appropriate orders, in accordance with law, as expeditiously as possible, preferably within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. The Writ Petition is accordingly disposed of. No order as to costs. ____________ G. ROHINI, J Dated: 28-02-2005 LSK ASSISTANT REGISTRAR To 1.
