He also submits that it is not competent for the respondent to conduct survey, even before grant of ryotwari patta. The legal position is not seriously disputed. Therefore, liberty is given to the petitioners to make an appropriate application to the Assistant Director of Survey and Land Records or the Mandal Revenue Officer seeking survey of the land. As and when such application is made, these authorities may consider and pass appropriate orders in accordance with law. The Writ Petition, with the above observation, is accordingly disposed of.
