The said representation was forwarded to the Mandal Revenue Inspector, who after enquiry submitted list of 273 eligible candidates to the 4th respondent for allotment of house site pattas. Though proceedings Rc.No.380/2013, dated 10.12.2013 has been received by the 3rd respondent, no steps have been taken to allot house site pattas to them. Hence they filed the present writ petition.
