ORDER

When the matter was taken up for hearing, it is brought to the notice by Mr.K.Muthumalai, learned counsel, who had filed vakalat on behalf of the fifth respondent that it is not the fifth respondent as show in the writ petition he appears and he appears for the fifth respondent as show in the writ affidavit. She is no way connected with the property to

the claim in the writ petition and it is only the fifth respondent as named in the writ affidavit, who would be the only person aggrieved, if the writ petition is allowed and hence, he would request this Court to serve notice on the correct person by directing the petitioner to take out necessary amendment petition.

2. But, however, the learned Government Advocate had produced communication sent by the Revenue Tahsildar, Thuraiyur to him indicating that an e-patta had been granted in favour of the petitioner for the very same property.

3. In such view of the matter, there would be no useful purpose in directing the petitioner to carry out necessary amendment to bring on record the actual person, who would be aggrieved, if any order is passed in this writ petition.

4. Since the Revenue Tahsildar, Thuraiyur, had already granted patta in favour of the petitioner, notice to the fifth respondent is

dispensed with. However, if she is aggrieved by the grant of patta in favour of the petitioner by the revenue authority, it is for her to exercise her right in the manner known to law.

5. With the aforesaid observation, this Writ Petition stands disposed of. There shall be no order as to costs. Consequently, connected miscellaneous petitions are closed. 13.11.2024 NCC : Yes/No Index : Yes/No Internet : Yes abr
