Hon'ble Shri Justice P. Sam Koshy Order on Board 12.03.2020

1. The State counsel on instructions submits that the property belonging to the petitioner in respect of khasra number 727/1, Area 1.10 Acre situated at village Sodaha, Tehsil Pandariya, District Kabirdham has never been acquired by the State Government by initiating any acquisition proceedings. Neither has the petitioner shown any document in this regard.

2. The State counsel further submits that if at all, if the property belongs to the petitioner and inadvertently if in the revenue records it is being shown as government land, the petitioner would be at liberty to approach the concerned revenue authorities for necessary corrections in accordance with the provisions of Section 116 of the Chhattisgarh Land Revenue Code for the same.

3. Given the submissions by the State counsel that the property of the petitioner has not been acquired, this Court is of the opinion that no fruitful

-2purpose would be served in keeping the writ petition pending at this juncture, rather ends of justice would meet if the writ petition is disposed of directing the petitioner to approach the concerned authorities under the provisions of Chhattisgarh Land Revenue Code for necessary correction in the revenue records by producing necessary documents in support of his contentions.

4. With the aforesaid observations, the present writ petition stands disposed of.
