THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTI CE C.PRAVEEN KUMAR W RI T PETI TI ON No. 2 6 9 6 8 of 2 0 1 7 ORDER:

Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Government Pleader for Revenue.

2.

With the consent of both the parties, the Writ Petition is disposed of at the admission stage.

3.

The present Writ Petition came to be filed with the following prayer:

'For the reasons stated in the accompanying affidavit, it is hereby prayed that this Hon'ble Court may be pleased to issue a writ or order or direction more particularly one in the nature of writ of mandamus declaring the action of respondent Nos.2 and 3 in not considering the representations made by the petitioner dated 13.10.2014, 13.02.2015 and 28.11.2016; not issuing pattadar pass book and title deed and not incorporating the name of the petitioner in the revenue records, as illegal and arbitrary'. 4.

Though various grounds are raised, learned counsel for the petitioner restricts his prayer seeking a direction to the third respondent to consider the representation made for issuance of pattadar pass books and title deeds and also direct the respondents not to interfere with his possession. 5.

Learned Assistant Government Pleader would submit that the question of considering the representations made before the

Collector for issuance of pattadar passbook and title deed would not arise, since the Tahsildar is the concerned authority. He submits that if an application is made in an appropriate format, the same would be considered, in accordance with law. 6.

Having regard to the above, the petitioner is directed to make an application in Form-6A through online, within two weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of the order, by fulfilling all the requirements, in which event, the third respondent shall pass appropriate orders on the said application, in accordance with law, as early as possible, preferably within a period of eight weeks from the date of making such application.

7.

Insofar as the allegation of interference by the respondents is concerned, the same is denied by the learned Government Pleader. However, any interference by the authorities with the land of the petitioner, if he is in possession, shall only be in accordance with the procedure established by law. 8.

With the above direction, the writ petition is disposed of. 9.

Miscellaneous petitions, pending if any, shall stand closed in the light of this final order. No order as to costs. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ JUSTI CE C.PRAVEEN KUMAR 11.08.2017, vhb
