THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAMESH RANGANATHAN WRIT PETITION NO.22719 OF 2011 ORDER: Questioning the action of the 1st respondent in refusing to stay the proceedings of the Tahasildar dated 04.02.2010, pending disposal of the appeal filed under Section 5(5) of the A.P. Rights in Land and Pattedar Pass Books Act, 1971, the present Writ Petition is filed. The petitioner claims to have succeeded to the property, of his father, of an extent of Ac.11.22 guntas in Meerpur Village, Shahbad Mandal, Rangareddy District. He is aggrieved by the action of the Tahasildar in issuing proceedings dated 04.02.2011 incorporating the name of the 4th respondent in respect of Ac.7.37 guntas of land in Survey No.771/E/1, after deducting Ac.3.00 cts of land, in the revenue records. Aggrieved thereby, the petitioner preferred an appeal to the 2nd respondent along with an application seeking stay of all further proceedings consequent to the order passed by the 3rd respondent. On the ground that the 2nd respondent had kept the appeal pending, though it was filed as early as on 18.03.2011, the petitioner preferred a revision to the 1st respondent and, on the ground that he has not passed any orders, the petitioner has invoked the jurisdiction of this Court under Article 226 of the Constitution of India. Learned Government Pleader for Revenue (Telangana Area), on instructions, submits that the appeal, along with an application seeking stay, is pending before the 2nd respondent, and the matter is posted for hearing on 20.08.2011. He would deny the petitioner’s allegations of respondents 2 and 3 having interfered with the petitioner’s possession of the land in question. He asserts that the respondents would only to act in accordance with law, and that too only after orders are passed in the stay petition filed before the 2nd respondent. In the light of the submission of the Learned Government Pleader, on instructions, I consider it appropriate to dispose of the Writ Petition itself directing the 2nd respondent to dispose of the stay petition filed by the petitioner within a period of two weeks from today. The submission of the Learned Government Pleader for Revenue (Telangana Area) that respondents 2 and 3 would not interfere with the petitioner’s possession till the stay petition is decided by the 2nd respondent is made part of the record. The Writ Petition is, accordingly, disposed of. No costs. ____________________________ RAMESH RANGANATHAN, J 17.08.2011 Note: Issue copy by 23.08.2011. B/o MRKR
