The only issue which requires consideration in the instant petition is of pendency of an application before respondent no.2 Sub Divisional Officer, Biloli for issuance of caste certificates with corrected nomenclature. In numerous petitions, this Court has dealt with the very issue wherein the petitioners had approached this Court submitting that there was an error in reference to their status of belonging to "Mannervarlu" and instead of "Mannervarlu", the caste certificates were issued under the nomenclature "Mannerwarlu".

In identical circumstances, this Court by order dated 1st March, 2019 in Writ Petition No.2774 of 2019 directed the Sub-Divisional Officer to issue caste certificate to the petitioner with corrected nomenclature. 4.

In the instant petition, the petitioners have submitted application to the Sub-Divisional Officer, Biloli on 14th February, 2019. As such, the SubDivisional Officer, Biloli is directed to issue caste certificates to the petitioners with corrected nomenclature, as early as expeditiously as possible and not later than four weeks from the date of receipt of order of this Court.

In view of above directions, writ petition stands disposed of.
