After due enquiry, the Mandal Revenue Officer, Bhoopalpalli-1st respondent identified the government land in Survey No.387/1 to an extent of Ac.5.00 cents for the purpose of allotment of house sites to the loading and unloading workers.

Since no action has been taken basing on the approval of the assignment review committee, the petitioners have chosen to approach this Court by invoking the jurisdiction under Article 226 of the Constitution of India. 3 . Heard learned counsel appearing for the petitioners and learned Government Pleader for Assignment appearing for the respondents. 4. Learned counsel appearing for the petitioners submits that the Mandal Revenue Officer, Bhoopalpalli-1st respondent considered the case of the petitioners and recommended the same, but the authorities have not acted upon it and thus, the petitioners approached this Court by invoking the jurisdiction under Article 226 of the Constitution of India. 5.
