IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE, ANDHRA PRADESH AT HYDERABAD (Special Original Jurisdiction) PRESENT: THE HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY MONDAY, THE THIRTEENTH DAY OF OCTOBER, TWO THOUSAND EIGHT ONLY WRIT PETITION No.11910 of 2000 Between: Shivamagari Butchamma and two others. … Petitioners And The Joint Collector, Ranga Reddy District and 15 others. … Respondents Counsel for the petitioners: Sri S.Niranjan Reddy. Counsel for the respondents: AGP for Revenue for R.1 & R.2. Sri K.Goverdhan Reddy for R.3 to R.16. This Court made the following: ORDER:- This Writ Petition is ﬁled for a Writ of Mandamus to declare the action of respondents 1 and 2 in initiating proceedings under the Andhra Pradesh (Telangana Area) Tenancy & Agricultural Lands Act, 1950 (for short “the Act”) in respect of the lands in Survey No.320 (old), situated at Mominpet village and Mandal, Ranga Reddy District, without issuing notice to the petitioners, as illegal, arbitrary and unconstitutional. The petitioners also ﬁled Civil Revision Petition No.2807 of 2000 before this Court under Section 90 of the Act. At the hearing, Sri K.Goverdhan Reddy, learned counsel for respondents 3 to 16, stated that since the petitioners ﬁled the statutory revision questioning the order of respondent No.1, with the leave of this Court, the Writ Petition ﬁled for the same relief is liable to be dismissed. Sri S.Niranjan Reddy, learned counsel for the petitioners, contended that as the petitioners are third parties before respondents 1 and 2, they were constrained to ﬁle this Writ Petition besides invoking the revisional jurisdiction. He expressed the apprehension that in the revision petition the petitioners may not be able to raise certain grounds, which are raised in this Writ Petition. Sri K.Goverdhan Reddy, learned counsel for respondents 3 to 16, however, fairly conceded that since the petitioners were granted leave by this Court to assail the order of respondent No.1, the petitioners’ apprehension has no basis and that they are entitled to question the order of respondent No.1 on all legally sustainable grounds. Inasmuch as the petitioners have already availed the statutory remedy of revision, I am of the view that this Writ Petition is liable to be dismissed. The Writ Petition is accordingly dismissed. The petitioners are permitted to raise all legally permissible grounds in the said Civil Revision Petition and dismissal of this Writ Petition is without prejudice to their right to pursue the said revision. The learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that this Court by order dated 5-7- 2000 granted interim order of status quo and that the same may be continued till the disposal of the Civil Revision Petition. In view of the same, the said order shall be continued till the disposal of CRP No.2807 of 2000. ------------------------- ----------- C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY,J Date: 13-10-2008 MNR
