2. According to the petitioner, though the original entry was made with correct survey number, its subsequent entry altered the survey number without notice to the petitioner. 3.This Court, at this stage, is not expressing any view on the merits of the claim made by the petitioner, as it is for the respondents to consider and decide. Since the petitioner had already made a representation on 13.01.2018 seeking for making such correction, it is for the respondents to consider the said representation and pass orders on the same on merits and in accordance with law. Accordingly, this writ petition is disposed of by directing the second respondent to consider the representation of the petitioner dated 13.01.2018 and pass orders on the same on merits and in accordance with law, after giving an opportunity of hearing to the petitioner and other interested parties if any, within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. No costs. The connected miscellaneous petition is closed.
