- 2 - THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE P.NAVEEN RAO WRIT PETITION NO.23954 OF 2019 ORDER:

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

According to petitioner he is the owner and in possession of land to an extent of Ac.6-32 guntas in Sy.No.478 and Ac.2-20 guntas in Sy.Nos.618/1 and 620/2 of Koheer Village and Mandal, having succeeded to the said properties. O.S.No.611 of 1979 was filed in the Court of V-Additional Judge, City Civil Court, Hyderabad. The dispute was compromised between the petitioner and his sisters and an irrevocable Registered General Power of Attorney dated 11.01.1993 was executed granting all powers to petitioner to alienate the subject lands. According to petitioner in furtherance thereof, his name was reflected in pahanies, but to his surprise and dismay, his name was not reflected in pass books and other records as pattadar. He therefore, submitted representations on 12.12.2017 and 22.12.2017 to the Tahsildar requesting to enter his name in all revenue records including issuance of pattadar pass books. Alleging inaction on the said representations, this writ petition is filed.

3.

In other words, the request of the petitioner is mutation of his name in the revenue records. Assuming that petitioner is entitled to such mutation, the same will be considered only if proper application is made in proper form. The Government has prescribed a proforma in Form VI-A to make an application through online web portal and only such applications are

- 3 - considered. Thus, it cannot be said that the respondent authorities are negligent in acting upon the representations of the petitioner.

4.

Having regard to the same, the Writ Petition is disposed of granting liberty to the petitioner to make an application in prescribed form for mutation/correction of his name in the revenue records. As and when such application is made, the respondent authorities shall consider the same and take appropriate decision as warranted by law and communicate the same to the petitioner within six (6) weeks from the date of submission of such application.

Pending miscellaneous petitions, if any, shall stand closed.
