IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY

CIVIL APPELLATE JURISDICTION WRIT PETITION NO.5945 OF 2016 Prashant Bapu Bhalerao ... Petitioner Vs The State of Maharashtra & Ors.

... Respondents ...

None for the Petitioner.

Mr. P.P.More, AGP for the Respondent Nos.2 to 7. CORAM : A.S.OKA & SANDEEP K. SHINDE JJ.

DATE : 5 DECEMBER, 2018 P.C. :

None appears for the Petitioner. It is well settled that a mere entry of a name in the revenue records does not confer any title on the person whose name is entered. For challenging the entry made in the revenue records, the Petitioner has efficacious remedy under the Maharashtra Land Revenue Code, 1966. Moreover, persons whose names are objected to are not impleaded as parties. Therefore, we decline to entertain this Petition under Article 226 of Shivgan 1/2

24-WP-5945-2016.odt the Constitution of India. However, remedies of the Petitioner are kept open. All contentions of the Petitioner are kept open. (SANDEEP K. SHINDE, J.) (A.S.OKA, J.) Shivgan 2/2
