Petitioners And The Joint Collector, Nalgonda, Nalgonda District. .. Respondent ORDER: Heard both sides. According to the petitioners, they purchased the agricultural lands to an extent of Ac.22.17 gts. and Ac.40.00 respectively in Sy.No.300/EE of Raghunadhapalem Revenue Village, Mattampalli Mandal of Nalgonda District, under respective registered sale deeds dated 16.06.2005, from one Kanaparthy Suryanarayana and his sons, and have been in possession and enjoyment of the same without any interruption from any corner. It is their case that they have applied to the Mandal Revenue Officer, Mattampalli, under Section 6-A of the A.P. Rights in Land and Pattadar Passbooks Act, 1971 (for short ‘the Act’), seeking to incorporate their names in the revenue records pertaining to the said lands and issue them pattadar passbooks and title deeds, but the Mandal Revenue Officer rejected their application, vide proceedings No.B/96/06. Aggrieved by such rejection, the petitioners preferred an appeal in Appeal Case No.4055 of 2006 before the Revenue Divisional Officer, Miryalguda, under Section 5 (5) of the Act, but the same was also dismissed. Challenging the same, the petitioners filed revision petitions bearing Nos.F2/1139/2008 and F2/1140/2008 respectively, under Section 9 of the Act, before the respondent- Joint Collector, Nalgonda, and the respondent, having taken the said revision petitions on file, ordered stay of the operation of the orders of the Revenue Divisional Officer, Miryalguda, impugned therein, till further orders, by his orders dated 18.02.2008, and directed the Revenue Divisional Officer and Tahsildar to submit the remarks and records by 07.03.2008. Now, the grievance of the petitioners is that the said revision petitions are still pending, and, in spite of their repeated requests, the respondent is not evincing any interest in the disposal of the said revision petitions. In the facts and circumstances of the case, without expressing any opinion on merits, the respondent is directed to dispose of the revision petitions bearing Nos. F2/1139/2008 and F2/1140/2008 filed by the petitioners, in accordance with law, within a period of six weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. With the above direction, the writ petition is disposed of. No order as to costs. _________________ JUSTICE C.V. RAMULU 23rd September, 2009. IBL
