No. 18 of Yeluru village, Chippagiri Mandal, Kurnoool, by the respondent vide his proceedings dated 14.02.2003. It is the case of the petitioners that they made representation dated 27.11.2007 requesting the respondent to issue Pattadar Pass Books and Title Deeds in respect of the said lands, but till date no action thereon had been taken. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Assistant Government Pleader for Revenue.

Rights in Land & Pattadar Pass Books Act, 1971 and Rule 18 of the Rules made thereunder, to the respondent. Admittedly, the petitioners have not made any such application, and merely made a representation requesting the respondent to issue Pattadar Pass Books and Title Deeds in respect of the lands granted to them, and they have not made proper application, cannot have any grievance against the respondent for non-considering their representation. However, if the petitioners make proper application in Form VI(A) as provided under Section 4(1) of the A.P. Rights in Land & Pattadar Pass Books Act, 1971 and Rule 18 of the Rules made thereunder, the respondent within a period of eight weeks from the date of filing such application, shall consider and dispose of the same and pass appropriate orders. Accordingly the writ petition is disposed of. ________________ N.V. RAMANA, J. Dated: 10th June, 2008. KSR .....
