4. The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is the owner of the properties comprised in Survey Nos.308/63 (5 cents) and 308/65B1B (1 Cent), totalling 6 Cents, situated at Pirampatti (South), Marungapuri Taluk, Trichy District. Despite repeated requests, the official respondents have not surveyed the land or fixed boundary stones. The petitioner made a representation dated 12.12.2025 requesting the survey and demarcation of boundaries under the supervision of the third respondent. Since the same has not been considered so far, the petitioner has approached this Court by filing the present Writ Petition seeking a direction to the official respondents to survey the land and fix boundary stones within a time frame to be stipulated by this Court.

5. The learned Government Advocate appearing for the respondents 1 and 2 submits that, after conducting an enquiry and recording the objections on either side, the respondents 1 and 2 shall consider the petitioner's representation and pass appropriate orders on merits and in accordance with law, within a time frame to be fixed by this Court.

There shall be no order as to costs. (K.SURENDER, J.) 10.02.2026 vsg Index: Yes/No Internet: Yes/No To 1.The Tahsildar, Marungapuri Taluk, Trichy District.
