2. The brief facts of the case are as follows: One Tmt.D.Pandiammal(fourth respondent in W.P(MD)No.13889 of 2016), filed an application seeking to survey and fix boundary of her land, as per the revenue records. Since the application was not considered, she filed a Writ Petition before this Court in W.P(MD)No.4053 of 2015 and this Court by order, dated 25.01.2016, directed the Taluk Head Surveyor/Deputy Inspector of Survey, Madurai West Taluk, Madurai District, to consider the claim of the petitioner's therein and to pass suitable orders within a period of eight weeks. Subsequently, notice of enquiry for measuring the property was also issued. But because of serious objections raised by other parties, it was stopped and a report was also filed by the third respondent to that effect on 06.04.2016. Therefore, the said Pandiammal filed Crl.O.P(MD)No. 7710 of 2016 under Section 482 Cr.P.C, seeking police protection.
This Court vide order,dated 21.06.2016 passed the following order: "7.In view of the above submissions made of the learned counsel for the parties, the Tahsildar, Madurai West Taluk, Madurai is directed to conduct enquiry by providing sufficient opportunity to the parties, within a period of three weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. If need be, the Tahsildar may seek for police protection for measuring the disputed land by issuing appropriate requisition to the second respondent police. On receipt of such requisition, the second respondent police shall provide adequate police protection for measuring the land."
Pursuant to the order passed by this Court, now the second respondent issued the impugned notice asking the parties to appear for survey of the disputed land.
3. Heard the rival submissions and perused the materials available on record.
4. The impugned notice was issued by the second respondent pursuant to the order passed by this Court in W.P(MD)No.4053 of 2015 and Crl.O.P(MD)No.7710 of 2016. Pursuant to the same, the second respondent proposed only to survey the land, for which the parties cannot have any objections. However, after survey, if any variation or deviation in the extent, is found, it is open to the parties to approach appropriate civil Court.
5. In the above circumstances, the second respondent is directed to conduct enquiry and after hearing all the parties concerned, survey the land in question with reference to the sale deeds and revenue records, within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. The parties are directed to co-operate with the second respondent in the above exercise.
6. With the above directions, the Writ Petitions are disposed of. No Costs. Consequently, connected Miscellaneous Petitions are closed.
