Counsel for the Petitioners: MR.CH.VENKATESHWARA REDDY Counsel for the Respondent Nos.1 and 2: GP FOR REVENUE The Court at the admission stage made the following: THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE ELIPE DHARMA RAO WRIT PETITION NO.13667 of 2005 ORDER: This Writ Petition is filed by the petitioners seeking declaration of the action of the respondents in not disposing of the Revision Petition No.D5/3352/2004 pending before the first respondent as illegal and arbitrary and consequential direction to the respondents to dispose of the Revision Petition forthwith and also to take steps not to sell the land to the third parties by unauthorized persons. The learned counsel for the petitioners submitted that the land admeasuring Acs.3.01 gts situated in Survey No.40 at Kothaguda Village of Serilingampally Mandal in Ranga Reddy District originally belongs to Jhon Mohammed and he died in the year 1958 leaving behind his six sons. On his death, the heirs are placed in possession of half of the land and half of the land is in possession of the petitioners. The petitioners are residing in the said land by constructing houses with municipal numbers 1-36/1 and 1-35 of Serilingampally Municipality. Therefore, Mohammed Jamal, the second son of the said Jhon Mohammed filed Revision Petition before the first respondent for inclusion of the name of Shaik Baba Saheb to whom he sold the land and deletion of the names of the petitioners. The petitioners have not alienated the said property. The first respondent received the Revision Petition on 09.08.2004 and immediately directed the second respondent to enquire into the same and submit a report. But no report was submitted by the second respondent and hence, the Revision Petition is not disposed of since August 2004. Therefore, the present Writ Petition is filed seeking the above relief. Though the learned Government Pleader for Revenue was given sufficient time to get instructions, he is not able to get any instructions. Hence, I deem it appropriate to dispose of the Writ Petition at the admission stage. The Writ Petition is accordingly disposed of with a direction to the first respondent to dispose of the Revision Petition within eight weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order and pass appropriate orders in accordance with law. No costs. ____________________ (ELIPE DHARMA RAO, J) 29th June 2005 RRB ASSISTANT REGISTRAR //True Copy// SECTION OFFICER Copy To: 1.
