¶23

for demarcation of lands of the petitioner within stipulated period which may be fixed by this Hon'ble Court.

¶25

10.3 Any other relief, which the Hon'ble Court may deem fit and proper, may also be passed in favour of the petitioner”

¶26

Learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is recorded owner of the land bearing Khasra Nos.40/13, 40/46, 40/47, 40/48, 113/36, 115/3, 119/3, 128/5, 133/6, 133/11, 137/5, 139/1, 139/10 149/5 and 40/20 total area 1.425 hectares situated at Village Banbod, Patwari Halka No.15, Rajswa Nigam Mandal Mudhipar, Tahsil Khairagarh, District Khairagrh-Chhuikhadan-Gandai (KCG), Chhattisgarh. It is submitted that the aforesaid land is ancestral property of the petitioner, but presently he is in possession of about only half acre of property and he is facing many problems in absence of demarcation of subject land. Therefore, he has filed an application (Annexure P-2) dated 30.12.2024 for demarcation of the subject land. The petitioner has also paid requisite fee for the said demarcation, despite that demarcation has not been carried out, therefore, he submits that respondent No. 4- Tahsildar, Khairagarh may be directed to get the above land of the petitioner demarcated.

¶27

In reply, learned counsel for the State/respondents, on instructions, submits that demarcation of some portion of the land of the petitioner was carried out on 25.06.2025, but because of rainy season, demarcation work was not completed. Learned counsel for the State submits that if petitioner shall

¶29

extend his consent, then fresh demarcation of the aforesaid land be carried out.

¶30

I have heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the material available on record.

¶31

Having considered aforesaid contention putforth by counsel for both the parties, this petition stands disposed of directing respondent No. 4 - Tahsildar, Khairagarh, Disrict Khairagarh Chhuikhadan Gandai to take decision on the application (Annexure P-2) dated 30.12.2024 filed by the petitioner and demarcation be carried out within a period of 45 days from the date of receipt/submission of copy this order. The petitioner is further directed to approach before the office of Tahsildar, Khairagarh for unhindered compliance of this order.
