Kurva Mohan Reddy(Minor) v. The State Of Andhra Pradesh

HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE C. PRAVEEN KUMAR WRIT PETITION No. 34720 of 2018 ORDER:

The present writ petition came to be filed seeking issuance of a writ of mandamus, declaring the action of the respondents 2 to 4 in not disposing of the representations dated 15.06.2018 and 15.09.2018 made for correction of entries in the revenue records, which are made in favour of the respondents 5 and 6, without notice to the petitioner, as illegal, arbitrary and unconstitutional. 2.

The learned counsel for the petitioner mainly submits that the pattadar Adangal/ pahani dated 05.05.2017 reflects the name of the petitioner, but, strangely, the same came to be deleted in the Adangal dated 12.09.2018, and the name of a third party came to be incorporated. In order to correct/ rectify the same, the petitioner is said to have made a representation, which is pending consideration. The counsel mainly submits that entering the name of a third party in respect of the subject land appears to be a mistake, and therefore, the same needs to be rectified. 3.

Learned Government Pleader for Revenue would submit that alteration of entries in the revenue records can be made only if it is a mistake, otherwise, the petitioner has to challenge the entries made in the revenue records.

4.

In view of the above submission made by the learned Government Pleader, the writ petition is disposed of at the admission stage with consent, directing the authorities to deal

with the representations made by the petitioner on 15.06.2018 and 15.09.2018, after hearing all concerned, and pass orders in accordance with law, as early as possible, preferably, within a period of three to five months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. There shall be no order as to costs. Consequently, miscellaneous petitions, if any, pending in this Writ Petition shall stand closed.
