.....Respondents The Court made the following:

HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE P.NAVEEN RAO ORDER:

Petitioner claims that 214.26 square yards of house plot was allotted to petitioner in Sy.No.143 of Kothagudem town. The Tahsildar had issued proceedings to that effect in the year 2005 on collection of  1,715/- towards land value and  180/- towards stamp duty. Petitioner claims to have raised small house and residing therein and paying property tax. Petitioner earlier filed W.P.No.69 of 2005 and withdrew the writ petition. Taking advantage of the Government Order in G.O.Ms.No.59, application was made on 12.11.2015 to regularize the unauthorized occupation.

2.

In this writ petition, petitioner also placed reliance on Government Policy notified in G.O.Ms.No.171 Revenue (Assignment-I) Department, dated 19.07.2017 for Kothagudem town. Alleging inaction on the said regularization application, this writ petition is filed.

3.

Learned Government Pleader, on instructions, submits that in fact, assignment cannot be granted to land, claimed by petitioner, as the same is on Northern side of Railway Track in Sy.No.143 allotted to Notified Area Committee in the year 1980 and, therefore, question of assignment of individual house plots does not arise. Learned Government Pleader also submits that large number of applications are received praying for grant of such regularization and requests at least three months time to undertake the process.

4.

Be that as it may, application submitted by the petitioner is pending consideration since the year 2015. Therefore, without expressing any opinion on merits, writ petition is disposed of directing the Tahsildar, Kothagudem (3rd respondent) to examine claim of petitioner and pass appropriate orders as warranted by law assigning due reasons in support of its decision within a period of three months from the date of receipt of copy of this order. Miscellaneous petitions, if any, pending in this writ petition shall stand closed. No costs.
