Heard Smt.Vijaya Lakshmi for petitioner and Assistant Government Pleader for Revenue.

The Assistant Government Pleader, on instructions, states that the representation said to have been filed by petitioner is not available and secondly the representation is not in the prescribed form under the A.P.

He further states that if the petitioner applies to 2nd respondent under the prescribed form, the 2nd respondent will examine and pass orders expeditiously.

The counsel for petitioner agrees the request to file representation in the prescribed form.

Hence, the writ petition is disposed of by this order. The petitioner is given liberty to apply to 2nd respondent for mutation of his name to an extent of Ac.0-21 gts in Sy.No.991 of Parkal Village and Mandal, Warangal District, within four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. The petitioner is given liberty to

communicate copy of this order along with the proposed request for mutation.

It is made clear that merits of the matter are to be considered by the 2nd respondent and the 2nd respondent follows the procedure prescribed by law in this behalf while considering the request of petitioner. There shall be no order as to costs.

Consequently, miscellaneous petitions, if any pending, stand closed.
