THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S.RAO WRIT PETITION No.8303 OF 2006 19.06.2006 Between: B.Sudhakar Reddy, S/o.Linga Reddy … Petitioner AND The Mandal Revenue Officer, Shamshabad And another … Respondents THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S.RAO WRIT PETITION No.8303 OF 2006 ORDER: The petitioner claims to be the owner of land admeasuring Acs.3.25 guntas in survey No.124/Aa situated at Pedda Toopra Village of Shamshabad Mandal in Ranga Reddy District. He allegedly purchased the same under a registered sale deed dated 20.10.2003 and statedly in possession of the property. The owners of the land in survey Nos.124, 124A, 125 and 126 of Pedda Toopra Village appears to have raised boundary objection when he was cultivating the land. Therefore, the petitioner filed an application under Section 10 of A.P. Survey and Boundaries Act, 1923 for survey of the land. After considering the application, the second respondent advised the petitioner to approach the Mandal Revenue Officer, Shamshabad (MRO) on the ground that demarcation of part of the area cannot be taken up since no measurement record is available in the office of the second respondent. Therefore, the petitioner approached the first respondent for demarcation. The same was not taken up on the ground that measurement record (Tippan) is not available in the office of the first respondent. Therefore, the present writ petition is filed. Heard the learned Counsel for the petitioner and learned Assistant Government Pleader for Revenue (General). The learned Assistant Government Pleader while pointing out that in the absence of tippan of the land, demarcation cannot be done, brought to the notice of this Court that following the circular instructions dated 01.6.1989 issued by the Commissioner of Survey, Settlements & Land Records, Government of Andhra Pradesh, this Court disposed of a similar case in respect of the land admeasuring Acs.12.32 guntas in survey Nos.13/E4, 13/E5 and 13/E6 of Bandlaguda Jagir village. In the said writ petition being W.P.No.13350 of 2006, dated 10.03.2006, this Court made the following observations. The learned Counsel for the petitioners while assailing the memo, dated 28.02.2004 placed reliance on the circular instructions in Ref.No.ROR(A)/225/89, dated 01.06.1989. A reading of the same would show that even where the land was not initially surveyed, it was found to be in possession of a number of persons and their possession was entered in the record of rights, survey can be taken up by allotting sub division numbers. The respondent lost sight of the said circular. Therefore, this matter is remanded to the respondent to take necessary action in accordance with the circular of the Commissioner of Survey, Settlements & Land Records, dated 01.06.1989, and pass appropriate orders within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. Following the same, this writ petition is also disposed of, directing the first respondent to pass appropriate orders in accordance with the circular referred to herein above, within a period of twelve weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. No costs. ______________ (V.V.S.RAO, J) June 19, 2006 YS
