The learned counsel appearing for the petitioner would submit that there is no rival claim nor suit is pending as an impediment for the issuance of patta to the lands belonging to the petitioner.

¶21

The learned Government Advocate appearing for the https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/ respondents would submit that the representation of the petitioner will be considered on merits and in accordance with law.

¶22

¶23

Though the petitioner has sought for a Mandamus for the issuance of patta, issuing patta is nothing but giving recognition of the lands possessed by the applicant. It is one of the essential documents for sale of the property in question. Hence, while issuing patta to the applicant, the Revenue authorities has to consider each and every aspect involved for the grant of patta, as it may very much affect the innocent owner.

¶24

In the case on hand, since the petitioner claims that there is no rival claim nor suit is pending, without going into the merits of the claim made by the petitioner in this Writ Petition, the second respondent is directed to pass appropriate orders, on the representation dated 23.03.2015 on merits and in accordance with law, after giving notice to the interested parties, and also after verifying the relevant records as on date, within a period of six weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order.
