P. C.:

1.

Not on board. Taken on board.

2.

Heard the petitioners appearing in person. All that we can make out from this petition is that it is a grievance of the petitioners that a Revision Application bearing No. 26 of 2015 filed under Section 76 of the Bombay Tenancy and Agricultural Lands Act, 1948, is pending before the Maharashtra Revenue Tribunal and it is not being heard. There are other allegations made regarding encroachment, danger to the life of the petitioners as well as danger to the life of the petitioners' animals. All these grievances will have to be addressed in proper proceedings and not in this Civil Writ Petition.

If the petitioners want expeditious hearing of the pending Revision Application by the Maharashtra Revenue Tribunal, the petitioners will have to take out an application before the Maharashtra Revenue Tribunal pointing out reasons for giving out of turn priority to the Revision Application. 4.

Accordingly, we dispose of this petition by granting liberty to the petitioners to make an application to the Maharashtra Revenue Tribunal seeking a prayer for fixing an early date of hearing of the pending Revision Application. We are sure that if such application is made, the Tribunal will consider the same sympathetically and will pass appropriate order thereon as expeditiously as possible.

5.

Subject to the above direction and subject to what is observed above, the writ petition is disposed. of. ( M. S. SONAK, J. ) ( A. S. OKA, J. ) Shridhar Marutirao Sutar Shridhar Marutirao Sutar Date: 2018.10.08 14:39:37 +0530
