Date: 5.11.2019 Between :

Avula Appaji and another.

Petitioners And State of Telangana, rep. by its Principal Secretary, Revenue Department, Secretariat Building, Hyderabad & others.

Respondents This court made the following :

ORDER :

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

2.

The 6th respondent-Nomula Rajya Lakshmi filed application before the 4th respondent-Tahsildar contending that the office of Tahsildar omitted to include the land in Sy.No.120/2 to an extent of Ac.4-0120 guntas in Charla (G) village in the E-Passbook and requested to include the said land. Along with the said application, she filed documents, which include copy of E-Passbook, copy of 1B entry in her name, copy of receipt, previously issued pattadar passbook and title deed. On due consideration of the objections and taking note of the mistake in the E-Passbook, the Tahsildar vide impugned proceedings dated 28.8.2019, ordered to include the entry pertaining to land in Sy.No.120/2 to an extent of Ac.4.02.2 guntas. Questioning the said order, the present writ petition is filed. 3.

A reading of the said order would show that already in the revenue records the name of 6th respondent is mutated in respect of above extent of land. The passbook only reflects what is contained in the revenue records. Merely because a correction is carried in the passbook, it cannot be said that a new entry is made. Be that as it may, as against the entries made in the revenue records or corrections made by the Tahsildar, petitioner has remedy by way of filing appeal under Section 5(5) of the ROR Act before the Revenue Divisional Officer and without availing the said remedy, this writ petition is filed. When an effective and efficacious remedy is

available, writ courts do not entertain the writ petition. Accordingly, the writ petition is dismissed, granting liberty to the petitioners to work out their remedies as available under law. As a sequel, the miscellaneous applications, if any, shall stand closed. __________________ P.NAVEEN RAO,J Date: 5.11.2019 DA
