Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Government Pleader for Revenue appearing for the respondents. 2.

Petitioner claims that her grand father Jegoori Venkaiah purchased land to an extent of Ac.1.05 guntas in Sy.No.1625/AA of Vemsur Revenue Village, Vemsur Mandal erstwhile Khammam District. The said Venkaiah died long back leaving his two sons by name Ramaiah @ Appaiah and Muthaiah. Petitioner is the daughter of Muthaiah. The said Ramaiah died issueless; that her father Muthaiah died even before the death of Ramaiah. During the life time of Ramaiah, he adopted the petitioner. After his death the name of Venkamma wife of Ramaiah was mutated in the revenue records as legal heir of Late Ramaiah in respect of land admeasuring Ac.1.05 guntas in Sy.No.1625/AA. She further claims that Venkamma also died on 26.09.2007 leaving behind her as her only legal heir.

3.

After the death of Venkamma, petitioner submitted application on 27.02.2018 to mutate her name in the revenue records and to issue pattadar pass books and title deeds in her favour. So far the respondent authorities have not acted on the same. Hence, this Writ Petition is filed.

4.

A copy of the application is enclosed at page No.10 as Ex.P.1 of the material paper book. However, the respondent authorities are not accepting applications in physical form and insist for submission of such applications through online web portal of the

- 3 - State. Apparently, so far no such application is made by the petitioner. Thus, it cannot be said that the respondent authorities are negligent in not acting on the application made by her. 5.

The Writ Petition is accordingly disposed of granting liberty to the petitioner to make application in Form VI-A through online web portal of the State Government and as and when such application is received, the competent authority shall consider the same and pass appropriate orders in accordance with law by assigning due reasons in support of the decision and communicate the same to the petitioner, within a period of eight (8) weeks from the date of receipt of such application.
