According to the petitioner, going by the recitals in Ext.P1, apart from the said extent of the property, certain 'Virivu' is also included. The extent of land shown under the Thandaper account of the petitioner is 5.6 Ares. Same extent is carried forward in the Re.Survey also. Petitioner filed a complaint as per Ext.P4 produced along with I.A.No.9811/2009 alleging that there is a mistake in the Re.Survey in as much as the extent of the 'Virivu', approximately 10 cents, has not been included in the Thandaper account of the petitioner. This was considered and by Ext.P2 order, the District Survey Superintendent held that there are no documents evidencing legitimate possession and title of the petitioner over any extent in excess of 5.67 Ares. This has been challenged by the petitioner by way of Ext.P3 before the District Collector. 2. Though several contentions have been raised in the writ petition, learned counsel for the petitioner confines his prayer for a direction for an early disposal of Ext.P3. W.P.(C).21536/09 2 3.
