PETITIONER AND .....RESPONDENT Petition under Article 226 of the constitution of India praying that in the circumstances stated in the Affidavit filed herein the High Court will be pleased to Counsel for the Petitioner:MR.T.SHARATH Counsel for the Respondent No.: GP FOR REVENUE The Court made the following : ORAL ORDER: This writ petition is misconceived. The petitioners seek a direction to the respondents ‘to make correct entries in S.No. 107 of Erramanzil, Panjagutta, Khariatabad, Hyderabad District and T.S.No. 3/1, Block-E, Ward-05 in Column No.5 as the land of 90 Acres 35 guntas and respective possessor column-16 including the name of late Shyamalal and names of petitioners and issue the corrected true entries of TSLR particulars and total extent as per the title, right and possession entries of the Gazijung and petitioners father late Shyamalal and consequently direct the respondents to furnish fresh TSLR particulars indicating the total extent of land indicating the names of the vendor of the petitioners i.e. Gazijung and the names of the petitioners and names of the petitioners’ father late Syamalal and pass such other order or orders as this Hon’ble Court may deem fit and proper in the circumstances of the case.’ The petitioners claim to be the owners of a house property bearing H.Nos. 6-3-252/185 and 186 in new T.S.No. 3/1, Block-E. Ward-85 of Panjagutta. Alleging that the respondents have falsely enumerated in the TSLR that the land belongs to Government and the PWD, the writ petition is filed seeking correction of the TSLR entries. The 2nd respondent has filed a counter affidavit clearly and unequivocally asserting that the property in question was a part of the Erramanzil palace comprising in all Ac. 107-00 gts of which the erstwhile Hyderabad Government purchased land to an extent of Ac.36.36 gts for accommodating the public works and ancillary departments and that for the other reasons pleaded in the counter affidavit, the property is Government property. The counter affidavit also asserts that the sale deed on the basis of which the petitioners claim title to the property is of doubtful veracity. There is thus a clear and unequivocal dispute as to title between the State on one hand and the petitioners on the other. This dispute is more appropriately resolved by a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not in a proceeding under Article 226 of the Constitution. The petitioners cannot seek resolution of such complex disputes of facts by the devise of seeking a correction of the TSLR entries. On the aforesaid analysis, the writ petition is misconceived and is accordingly dismissed, with liberty to the petitioners to pursue appropriate remedies before a civil court of competent jurisdiction. There shall be no order as to costs. ___________________ GODA RAGHURAM,J 26.6.2009. KRB. THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE GODA RAGHURAM WRIT PETITION No. 6441 of 2000 Dated: 26.6.2009.
