Counsel for the Petitioner: MR.THANNIRU SRINIVAS Counsel for the Respondents: GP FOR REVENUE The Court made the following : ORDER: It is the case of the petitioner that she is a member of the Andhra Pradesh Animal Husbandry Cooperative Housing Society Limited. She submitted an application on 30.6.2005 as per the guidelines issued for allotment of excess lands already in occupation of the 3rd parties and also paid the prescribed amounts in terms of G.O.Ms.No.455 Revenue (UC.1) Department dated 29.7.2002 for allotment of 285 square meters in his occupation, but, however while allotting the said land to her, the authorities have wrongly shown the extent as 215.72 square meters instead of 285 square meters though the amount collected was for the extent of 285 square meters. Seeking rectification of the said mistake, it is stated that she made a representation on 16.9.2006 by enclosing all the necessary documents. Since there was no response to the said representation, she filed W.P.No.19450 of 2007 and this Court by orders dated 13.9.2007 disposed of the said writ petition directing the 2nd respondent to consider and take appropriate decision on the said representation of the petitioner. The grievance of the petitioner is that though this Court directed the 2nd respondent to dispose of her representation without any undue delay, so far no orders are passed on her representation. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner as well as the learned Government Pleader for Revenue and at their request the matter is taken up for final disposal at the admission stage. Admittedly, by orders dated 13.9.2007 in W.P.No.19450 of 2007 this Court has already directed the 2nd respondent – Special Officer and Competent Authority, Urban Land Ceiling, Hyderabad to dispose of the representation made by the petitioner seeking rectification of the mistake occurred while mentioning the extent of land. Therefore, no further directions need be given once again in this writ petition. However, if the representation of the petitioner is so far not considered and appropriate orders are not passed, the 2nd respondent shall consider the same and pass appropriate orders as already directed by this Court expeditiously. With the above direction, the writ petition is disposed of. N.V.RAMANA,J DT.12.6.2008 msv .....
