ORDER

This writ petition has been filed for a writ of mandamus forbearing the respondents from interfering with the peaceful possession and enjoyment of the property in dispute.

2.When the writ petition has been taken up for hearing the learned Government Advocate submits that there is a civil dispute between the petitioner and the private respondents.

3.It appears that with an apprehension that the revenue officials would grant patta to the private respondents, the petitioner has filed this writ petition. This Court is not inclined to entertain this writ petition on the grounds raised by the petitioner. Even if patta is granted to the private respondents, the petitioner can work out his remedy under the Patta Pass Book Act and before the competent civil Court.

4.Accordingly this writ petition is dismissed. 3/5

No costs. Consequently connected miscellaneous petitions are also dismissed.
